Appendix D Error Messages
Table D-1 lists all the error messages that might appear when you are
using INFORM/V. Table D-2 contains a list of fatal processing error
messages; i.e., those messages that are identified by the message FATAL
PROCESSING ERROR number at your terminal. The information in Table D-2
will be of particular value to your database administrator if you should
get a fatal processing error message.
