(TTUTIL)
--------------------------------------------------------------
The error messages listed occur while entering data for a terminal-type
or printer-type file. Messages are displayed in inverse video on the
bottom line of the screen. If the error(s) are related to a field (or
fields) on the screen, the fields are highlighted in full bright, inverse
video. If more than one field contains an error, only the error message
for the first highlighted field is displayed.
---------------------------------------------------------------
MESSAGE Character already has other function.
CAUSE The character entered has been defined elsewhere to
have a different special meaning. Each character
can have only one special function.
ACTION Choose a different character for this special
function, or release this character for use by
selecting a different character for the other
special function.
---------------------------------------------------------------
MESSAGE Character value out of range.
CAUSE The character input was out of the range of
characters allowed for that function.
ACTION Input a character within the range.
---------------------------------------------------------------
MESSAGE File is damaged; checksum error.
CAUSE The file has been damaged so that the checksum is
no longer valid. The utility still reads the data
from the file into the work area, and when saving
the data back to the file, a correct checksum is
generated.
ACTION Press Enter again to go to the form selected.
Verify the data on the screen.
---------------------------------------------------------------

CAUSE The file name specified is not a valid VFC file.

file.
ACTION Specify a file that is a valid terminal-type file.
---------------------------------------------------------------
MESSAGE Invalid file name.
CAUSE The file name specified does not meet the
requirements for an HP3000 file name. It might be
because the name starts with a non-alphabetic
character or contains non-alphanumeric characters.

---------------------------------------------------------------
MESSAGE File converted to MPE XL format.

CAUSE You have input more than the maximum allowed number
of characters for the specified function.
ACTION Reduce the number to less than or equal to the
maximum specified in the error message.
---------------------------------------------------------------
MESSAGE Missing character.
CAUSE In the input of a string, the program is expecting
another character, but none follows. This is most
likely caused by two commas in a row, or a comma at
the end of a line without the ampersand.
ACTION Remove the extra comma, or insert the appropriate
character.
---------------------------------------------------------------
MESSAGE Modification of data is not allowed.
CAUSE Enter was pressed after choosing the View file
option. In View mode, modification of data is not

CAUSE The field contains a value that is not within the
range specified.

CAUSE The field requires N, L, P, or B as a valid
response, but a different value was input.

---------------------------------------------------------------
MESSAGE Response must be ON or OFF.
CAUSE The only valid entries for this field are ON and
OFF, but some other value was entered.

CAUSE The field requires either a Y or an N as a valid
response, but a different value was input.

format.

CAUSE The field is designed to accept only positive
integers. The value entered contains characters
other than digits.

defined.

VFC entry point. Therefore, there is no

Menu.
---------------------------------------------------------------
MESSAGE This option cannot be selected. The termtype
currently displayed is not a printer termtype file.
CAUSE The indicated field(s) contain invalid data.
ACTION Either erase the indicated fields or go to another
screen. Enter another option (C, M, V) in the VFC
Head Menu.
