                                  Version 1.0B


     The following conditions/errors currently exist in the Toolkit:

     · This error applies to every Toolkit function that has as a parameter
       a pointer to a phonebook structure.  These Toolkit functions do not
       check to ensure that the pointer points to a valid phonebook
       structure.  Therefore, the results are unreliable.  The application
       must ensure that the pointer points to a valid phonebook structure.

     · The application passes a parameter, which is a pointer to a
       phonebook entry structure, to the PbAddEntry, PbFindFirstOrNext,
       PbFreePBE, PbGetEntry, and PbModifyEntry functions.  These functions
       do not check to ensure that the pointer points to a valid phonebook
       entry structure.  The results are unreliable.  The application must
       ensure that the pointer points to a valid phonebook entry structure.

     · The application passes a parameter, which is a pointer to a
       phonebook, to the PbGarbageCollect function.  The phonebook should
       be closed.  However, PbGarbageCollect works correctly if the pointer
       points to an open phonebook.  The phonebook is closed when the
       garbage collection is done.

     · The application passes a parameter, which is a pointer  to a
       phonebook entry structure, to PbAddEntry.  One of the fields in the
       phonebook entry structure is Hardware_Type.  PbAddEntry does not
       check to ensure that Hardware_Type is a valid type (HASCCC or
       FAXONLY).  The application must ensure that the Hardware_Type field
       contains a valid type.

     · PbFreePBE will set Pberrno to INVALID_PARAMETER if either the
       phonebook structure or phonebook entry structure passed to PbFreePBE
       is NULL.  You should check Pberrno to determine whether it has been
       set upon returning from PbFreePBE.

     · In Intel's Resident Manager Version 1.11 and below, the Get Event
       Date (0AH) and Get Event Time (0CH) functions, do not return an
       error when the event specified is not in the queue.  A random time
       and date are returned.  The application must ensure that the event
       handle is the handle of an existing event in the specified queue
       before making a call to either of these routines.
