$ A01 Field value has invalid format
The number entered has an invalid character. The only characters
you should use in this field are the digits 0 through 9, plus or
minus, or a decimal point.
$ A02 Field value out of range
The number entered is outside the appropriate range. The range
for VOLUME is 0 to 100 (percent). The range for TIME is 0 to 60
(seconds). Enter a value within the range.
$ A03 System error, exit the AVC program and try again
An internal error has occurred. Make note of the circumstances
and report the error to IBM. You should exit completely and
start over. You may need to reboot your system.
$ A04 Currently nothing is retained for PASTE to use
Before doing a PASTE, you must first do a LIFT or COPY.
If you did a LIFT or COPY, but then mixed the file or brought
in a new file to work on, the saved data was discarded since it
was no longer valid.
$ A05 <Copy / lift / paste / delete / insert> undone
Your last editing action has been undone. Lines you added have
been removed, or lines you deleted have been restored.
COPY: the lines you marked are no longer being saved. If you
PASTE, the previous saved lines, if any, will be pasted.
LIFT: the lines you marked have been replaced, and they are no
longer being saved. If you PASTE, the previous saved lines, if
any, will be pasted.
PASTE: the lines you pasted have been removed. They are still
being saved so you can PASTE them in a different place.
DELETE: the lines you deleted have been restored.
INSERT: the blank lines you inserted have been removed.
$ A06 Last <copy / lift / paste / delete / insert> restored
Your last editing action had been temporarily undone. Now it has
been restored to the action you originally requested.
COPY: the lines you marked are saved and can be pasted.
LIFT: the lines you marked have been deleted and can be pasted
elsewhere.
PASTE: the lines have been pasted at the point you indicated.
DELETE: the lines have been deleted.
INSERT: the blank lines have been added.
$ A07 Unable to create temporary files, exit and try again
A work file is needed, and it cannot be created. You may be out
of disk space or the system may be configured for too few files.
Exit from your editing session. Then, check how much free disk
space there is. If your disk is full or nearly so, delete some
files to make more room. If there appears to be enough room on
your disk, check your CONFIG.SYS file and increase the number of
FILES or FCBS.
$ A08 There is nothing to Undo
The UNDO function allows you to cancel the previous editing
action, namely a lift, copy, paste, delete, or insert. Undo is
available immediately after making such a change, but when you
go on to mix the audio or bring in a new file, the undo will no
longer apply and the saved information will be discarded.
Either you requested UNDO before making one of these changes or
subsequent editing caused the undo information to be discarded.
$ A09 Display format is now <tenths / seconds>
The display of the audio has been changed from tenths to full
seconds or vice versa.
For tenths, the display shows ten lines for each second of audio,
or more than ten lines where an audio line has a multiple-line
comment. For full seconds, each sound line displayed represents
one second of audio, also with additional lines for multi-line
comments.
$ A10 Not enough storage to edit audio
There is not enough memory to edit the audio file. If you are in
OS/2, check your CONFIG.SYS file to make sure it permits
swapping and that SWAPPATH= provides adequate free space.
Also check the swap file drive to make sure it has 512K free.
If you are in DOS, it may be that your system has insufficient
free main memory (512K is needed). If you are slightly below the
requirement, you should cut down on the resident programs in use
by changing CONFIG.SYS to not load a device driver. Some
programs, such as PRINT, become resident the first time you run
them, and you may need to reboot to eliminate such a program.
$ A11 Not enough storage to edit this audio file
There is not enough memory to edit the audio file. If you are in
OS/2, check your CONFIG.SYS file to make sure it permits
swapping and that SWAPPATH= provides adequate free space.
Also check the swap file drive to make sure it has 512K free.
If you are in DOS, it may be that your system has insufficient free
main memory to edit a file of this size, although a smaller one may
be edited. You may be able to cut down on the resident programs in
use by changing CONFIG.SYS to not load a device driver. Some
programs, such as PRINT, become resident the first time you run
them, and you may need to reboot to eliminate such a program.
Check the number of BUFFERS, FILES, and FCBS specified, since
all of these take memory space.
If you are using DOS and editing Sound B, you may be able to work
on the file as Sound A. Save the changes made so far, and then
bring in the same audio as Sound A. This may make enough memory
available for you to continue.
$ A12 ENTER exits WITHOUT SAVING Audio changes, else ESC resumes edit
You are about to exit without saving the changes you have made.
If you want to exit anyway, press Enter. If you want to resume
editing, press Escape.
$ A13 The block defined has reached maximum size
The section you are blocking for lift or copy is as large as can be
handled, so you will need to make this change in more than one step.
Paste the section you have blocked. Then go back for the rest.
$ A14 Invalid method specified
The word specified for method must be VOLUME.
$ A15 Error reading audio file(s), exit the AVC program and try again
The file cannot be read. Either there is a problem with the disk
or diskette drive or the file's data has been damaged. Correct
the problem and try again.
$ A16 Error writing audio file(s), exit the AVC program and try again
The file cannot be written. There is a problem with the disk or
diskette drive. Correct the problem and try again. You may have
to delete the file if it was partially written.
$ A17 Not enough storage to complete operation
There is not enough memory to complete the operation. If you are in
OS/2, check your CONFIG.SYS file to make sure it permits
swapping and that SWAPPATH= provides adequate free space.
Also check the swap file drive to make sure it has 512K free.
If you are in DOS, it may be that your system has insufficient
free main memory (512K is needed). If you are slightly below the
requirement, you should cut down on the resident programs in use
by changing CONFIG.SYS to not load a device driver. Some
programs, such as PRINT, become resident the first time you run
them, and you may need to reboot to eliminate such a program.
$ A18 Audio card not installed or damaged
The audio card is not responding. Either your system has no
audio card, it was not installed properly, or it has been
damaged. Check the card and the installation instructions.
$ A19 Audio card software not found or damaged (IBMAUDx.DSP)
The audio card uses "signal processor" software in a file with the
extension DSP. Either this file could not be found to be loaded,
or the file has been corrupted. Exit the AVC and reinstall audio
to correct the problem.
$ A20 ENTER gets new audio WITHOUT SAVING Audio changes, else ESC get
You have selected a different audio file without saving the changes
made to this one. If you want to discard the changes and bring in
the new audio file, press Enter.
If you want to save the changes you've made first, press Escape to
cancel the request for the new file. Save the changes to this file.
Then repeat your request for the new file.
$ A21 Not enough room for more text lines
The audio file has now reached the limit for text. You may be able
to delete some lines to make room for additions.
$ A22 Maximum length of audio section has been reached
You are at the physical limit of the sound track. Put any further
recording in a separate file.
If you are using DOS and editing Sound B, it may be that there is
not enough available memory. Save the changes made so far, and
then bring in the same audio as Sound A. This may make enough
memory available for you to continue.
$ A23 Error on temporary file, unable to perform editing request
There is a problem with the audio work file. It may be a problem
with the disk, or it could be that the disk is full.
Save the file you are working on, exit the session, and correct
the problem.
$ A24 Upon ENTER the copy buffer will be lost, else ESC
Lines from a previous COPY or LIFT are still being held, but are
about to be discarded. Press Enter to continue what you are doing
or Escape to cancel. If you continue, the saved lines will be
discarded.
$ A25 Nothing present to edit
Since there are no lines in the file, there is nothing to be copied,
lifted, or deleted. The request is ignored.
$ A26 Cursor down to begin inserting comments/silence
To insert the first line, move the cursor down one line. Continue
to move the cursor down to insert multiple lines. Press Enter to
complete the insert.
If you started with the cursor in the SOUND column or moved the
cursor over to it before cursoring down, you are inserting silence
in the sound track. Silence is inserted in units of either full
seconds or tenths, depending on your current ZOOM setting.
$ A27 SOURCE LINE set to xxxxxxxxxxx, will use for recording
Your recording source has been set, as indicated by the message.
The settings are:
Microphone (standard gain)
Microphone (high gain)
Line (both channels)
Line (left channel)
Line (right channel)
The setting only applies to the current session. To make the
setting permanent, edit your Profile on the AVC Library screen.
$ A28 Currently no Audio B is present to switch to
You tried to switch over to Audio B, but there is no audio B file
being edited. The request is ignored.
$ A29 File is being reformatted to reduce the size
The audio file is being reorganized to cut down on the amount of
disk space it takes. Since this process will read and write large
segments of the file, it may take a few moments to complete.
The reformatting may occur even if you requested that your changes
NOT be saved. In this case, it is the original file that is being
reformatted, and the reorganized file will have only the original
material.
$ A30 One moment, please...
Internal processing is taking place. You must wait for it to finish.
$ A31 Cannot find or open audio data file (.!AD)
The main audio file is available, but the digital audio portion is
not. The digital audio has the same name as the main file, but
with the file extension _AD or !AD. It may be that it was not copied
to your directory with the main audio file, or it has been deleted or
renamed. Cancel the operation on this file and correct the
problem.
$ A32 Audio card not installed
Either your system has no audio card or it has been disconnected.
If you have a card, check its installation.
$ A33 Audio device driver not installed or device is in use (AEDD_OS2.SYS)
In order to play or record audio, you must have the audio device
driver installed. The device driver program must be on your
system, and the CONFIG.SYS file must have a statement of the form:
DEVICE= (path) AEDD_OS2.SYS
Edit CONFIG.SYS to include the statement and reboot your system.
Watch for any error messages concerning the device driver during
system startup. If the path information is incorrect, the system
will not be able to find the device driver and it will not be
installed.
Even if the device driver is installed, the audio card can only be
used by one application at a time. If you have another application
that is using the card, you will need to terminate it to make the
audio device available.
$ A34 Sync point set at position 0000
You have set the sync point at the start of the audio. Since this
is the default position, it is not marked on the screen.
$ A35 Sync point adjusted due to deletion of its prior line
One of the lines just deleted was marked as a sync point. The
sync mark has been kept and placed on the first available
remaining line.
$ A36 Currently no play block is present for REPLAY
The REPLAY function lets you play a block a second time. Since
no block has been marked for playing, the request is ignored.
$ A37 RECORD is at pause, press ENTER to begin (Monitor=xxx, Source=xxxxxx)
The system is ready to record. When you are ready, press Enter
to start.
The message also shows the monitoring status (whether playback during
recording is on or off ... it is always off for stereo) and the
expected audio source (microphone or line) and its gain setting.
$ A38 RECORD in progress, press ENTER to pause or press ESC to stop
Recording has started. Press Escape when you are done. If you
want to pause momentarily, press Enter, then press Enter again to
resume.
$ A39 Recording stopped, disk is too slow or fragmented
The digitized audio cannot be written to disk fast enough to keep up
with the audio being recorded, and recording has been stopped.
In OS/2, it is possible that a background process is contending for
system resources, causing simultaneous disk activity for swapping.
Cancel other sessions. You may need to take down the network.
If the audio is being written to a secondary device such as a diskette,
it may be that the device itself is too slow to handle the speeds
needed for recording. Record to the fixed disk and then copy the
finished files to the secondary device. If the secondary device is
slow, you may have some undesirable skips during playback, so you
should check for this as well.
If you are writing to your hard disk and there is no system contention,
the data on your disk is probably fragmented and needs reorganization.
Obtain a "disk organizer" program and reorganize it. Doing so
will improve your overall system performance as well as audio.
$ A40 Currently no record block is present for RERECORD
The RERECORD function lets you record a block a second time.
Since no block has yet been recorded, the request is ignored.
$ A41 Recording - [ seconds ] [ volume ]
Recording is in process, with the time and volume shown as it
proceeds. To stop recording, press Escape. To pause, press Enter,
and then press Enter again to resume.
$ A42 Audio save in progress
The audio file is being saved on disk. This may take a few moments
to complete.
$ A43 Audio saved
The audio file has been saved on disk.
$ A44 Currently no Audio B is present to be saved
You requested a file save for Audio B, but there was no audio file
being edited. The request is ignored.
$ A45 Currently no Audio B is present to be created
You requested a file create for Audio B, but there was no audio file
being edited. The request is ignored.
$ A47 Audio create in progress
The new audio file is being created on disk. This may take a few
moments to complete.
$ A48 Audio created
The audio has been saved as a new file in the current application
with the name you indicated. This is now the file being edited.
All changes since the last "save" or "create" function were saved
in this new file. These changes were not saved with the audio you
were previously editing.
$ A49 Save error occurred, Create New has been stopped
There was a problem with the disk or diskette drive while the file
was being created. It may be that the disk is full. Correct the
problem and try again. You may have to delete the file if it was
partially written.
$ A50 Audio file already exists: change name or else ESC
There is another file with the name chosen. Either use a different
name or cancel the operation.
$ A51 Unable to create or write to file, disk may be out of space
Your disk is full. If you have access to another drive, you can
try saving the file on that drive. If you are using OS/2, you may
be able to hotkey to DOS, free some disk space by deleting files,
and then try again to save the file. Otherwise, you will have to
cancel the operation (your changes will be lost, but your original
file should be intact), exit, and free disk space.
$ A52 Unable to create file, too many files open
The file cannot be created because the number of files now
in use has already reached the limit. If this situation recurs,
change your CONFIG.SYS file to permit more files to be open.
$ A53 Audio must be saved at least once before CREATE NEW is requested
Since the file was already indicated as being new when you started,
you merely select the save option now. This will save the new
file.
Use CREATE NEW when you make changes to an existing file, but want
to save the changes under a new name, leaving the original intact.
$ A54 MONITOR RECORDING is set for playback of recorded audio
MONITOR set for playback of recorded audio (Stereo files set for source)
MONITOR RECORDING is set for playback of audio source
MONITOR RECORDING set to OFF, no playback during recording
Monitor-recording status, which provides playback of the audio while
you are recording it, is in effect or switched off, as the message
says. Monitoring is always in effect at the start of the session.
Monitoring the source means that you will be listening to the original
audio before it is digitally compressed. Monitoring the recording
means that you will be listening to the digitized audio played back.
For stereo, you can only monitor the source. If your setting is to
monitor recording, the system will actually be playing the source
if the audio is stereo.
$ A55 There is no label, comment, or control text to print
There is nothing in this audio file that could be printed. The
print request is ignored.
$ A56 PRINT in progress, press ENTER to pause or Esc to stop
Your print request has been started. If you need to stop it
momentarily, press Enter. To cancel, press Escape.
$ A57 PRINT is at pause, press ENTER to resume
You requested that printing stop momentarily. Press Enter to
continue printing. Press Escape to cancel the rest of the
printout.
$ A58 Printer error has occurred, PRINT has been stopped
There is a problem with the printer. It may be out of paper, or
it may be that the paper is torn or jammed. Correct the problem
and try again.
$ A59 The block defined has no label, comment, or control text to print
The block marked for printing is entirely blank. It will not be
printed.
$ A60 Cursor up/down to size block, press ENTER to begin
Move the cursor to the last line you want. Then press Enter.
This will complete the step of marking the set of lines.
If you only want one line, press Enter on that line.
$ A61 Copied area now retained for a following PASTE
The lines you marked can now be pasted. Move the cursor to the
point where the lines should go (they will be pasted ahead of that
line) and select the PASTE function.
$ A62 Lifted area now retained for a following PASTE
The lines you marked have been deleted and can now be pasted
elsewhere. Move the cursor to the point where the lines should go
(they will be pasted ahead of that line) and select the PASTE
function.
$ A63 SOUND CONTROL set to xxx, entries are applied/bypassed during play
If sound control is ON, the entries for method, volume, and time
are reflected in the audio that you hear. If sound control is OFF,
the original audio is played.
$ A64 Currently no Audio B is present to be mixed
You requested a mix for Audio B, but there is no audio B file being
edited. The request is ignored.
$ A65 Invalid name for audio file: change name or else ESC
The name given to the file cannot be used. Choose a different name.
$ A66 File is not available: change the name or else ESC
The file requested is in use by someone else. Either choose a
different file to work on or press Escape to cancel the request
altogether.
$ A67 Audio file already exists: press ESC to stop or ENTER to proceed
You are about to write this file over a file of the same name, and
the data currently in that file will be lost. Press Enter to go
ahead with the operation. Press Escape to cancel it.
$ A68 Audio must be saved at least once before used in a MIX
Before proceeding with the MIX operation, you need to save the
file to establish it on disk. First save the file, and then
proceed with the MIX.
$ A69 MIX in progress - [ percent ] complete, Esc to cancel
Mixing is in process, with an approximate percentage of completion
shown as it proceeds. To stop mixing, press Escape. To pause,
press Enter, and then press Enter again to resume.
$ A70 PERMANENT SOUND MIX in progress, re-digitizing via sound controls
Audio is being permanently changed to reflect the entries in the
method, volume, and time columns. This may take a few moments.
After MIX is complete, the sound control entries will have been
removed.
$ A71 Sound mix successful but comments truncated at maximum allowed
The two sounds have been mixed together, but the total number of
comment lines between them exceeded the maximum number possible.
Comments near the end have been dropped.
$ A72 Mixing complete, rebuilding audio file
Audio has been mixed and is being written to the disk. This may
take a few moments.
$ A73 Changes in x will be lost after mix: ENTER to proceed, ESC to stop
Changes have been made to the file. The mix will include those
changes, but since it is to a different file, the original file's
changes will be lost when it is released.
If you want to go ahead with the mix, press Enter. If not, press
Escape.
$ A74 Auto-scrolling set to <on/off> for background, <on/off> for play/record
You have set the auto-scroll option.
When auto-scroll is on for play/record, the text of the audio file
moves up the screen, tracking the audio as it plays or is being
recorded.
When auto-scroll is on for the background, the background sound
scrolls along with the foreground sound, during cursoring as well
as play or record, tracking it according to the sync points for
the two sounds.
$ A75 Playing - [ seconds ] [ volume ]
Audio is playing, with the time and volume shown as it proceeds.
To stop playback, press Escape. To pause, press Enter, and then
press Enter again to resume.
$ A76 HELP not available
Unable to run HELP. Either there is not enough memory to run HELP
or the help subsystem was not installed.
$ A77 Copy buffer contains different type of audio, PASTE not allowed
The type of audio you copied or lifted does not correspond to the
audio in this file. The different audio quality types -- voice,
music, and stereo -- are all encoded differently and cannot be
combined in this way.
$ A78 Mix will change audio type: Enter to proceed, else ESC to stop
Mixing will change the audio to music mode. If the audio is voice
grade, quality will not change but the file will be larger. If
the audio is stereo, the file will be smaller but quality may
degrade slightly.
If you want to go ahead with the mix, press Enter. If not, press
Escape.
$ A79 All audio files being mixed must contain sound
You requested a MIX function, but at least one of the files being
edited has no recorded audio. The request is ignored.
$ A80 Background play off, a (S) or (HM) file can not be played with other files
Background play has been switched off, since the audio is stereo or FM.
$ A81 Unreadable audio segments in audio file replaced by silence
The audio file can only be partly read. Some parts have been lost
or damaged. The unusable parts will be replaced by silence. It
may be that what is lost is only a fraction of a second and will
not be noticeable, or it may be that enough has been lost to make
the audio unusable.
Play the audio to determine whether you will have to rerecord it.
$ A82 BACKGROUND PLAY option set to <ON / OFF>
Background play has been turned on if it was off, or vice versa.
Use ALT+K to switch background play on or off.
$ A83 Operation cancelled, can not be run as a background task
You switched to a different session while audio was being processed,
and the operating system made the AVC a background task. The audio
processing stopped as a result.
Repeat what you were doing, but don't switch tasks until the audio
operation is complete.
$ A84 File too large, use SAVE or SAVE AND EXIT to reformat the file
Because of changes made so far, the audio file has reached its size
limit. At this point, you need to save the file before continuing.
The save operation will reorganize the file and reduce it in size.
If you were recording, the recording has been stopped, but the sound
recorded up to this point is in the file. If you were trying to mix
or paste, the operation was cancelled before any part of it was done.
Save the file. Then continue what you were doing.
$ A85 File is too large to mix, reduce size and try again
There is not enough memory to mix a file of this size. The mix was
not started.
It may be that the file is stereo and longer than 8 minutes or that
you are mixing two files together, and the sync points are set in a
way that would produce a mixed soundtrack longer than 10 minutes.
You will need to split your audio into shorter tracks.
If you are in DOS and mixing with sound B as the target, the result
of the mix will be too big to be held as sound B. If you are mixing
A on top of B, you may be able to achieve what you want by mixing B
on top of A instead. If you are mixing only B, you can exit and
then bring in the audio as sound A and then mix it.
$ A86 Cannot write to a read only file
The sound you are trying to update is either on a read-only drive
or marked as a read-only file. The operating system will not
permit it to be changed.
You can save the sound as a new file on a read-write drive. Use
the "create new" option to do so.
$ A87 A MIDI file can not be played in DOS
Support for MIDI is only available in OS/2.
$ A88 Background play off, a MIDI file can only be played with a VOICE file
Because your secondary file isn't a voice file, the background play
option has been switched off. MIDI can only be accompanied by voice.
$ A89 Recording not allowed with MIDI files
A MIDI file can only be played back. The AVC does not record MIDI.
$ A90 MIDI (MI) or (HM) files can not be used as source or target of mix
Neither MIDI nor FM files can be mixed. To mix, your mix files must
be voice, music, or stereo.
$ A91 MIDI assignments allowed only on MIDI (MI) files
This function allows you to assign instrument "voices". It applies only
when the file you are editing is a MIDI file.
$ A92 Invalid voice/control value - Use PROMPT for list of correct values
Your entry for voice or control value is unrecognized. It may be
spelled incorrectly. Use F10 to pull down the Prompt menu and select
the entry from the list.
$ A93 ENTER exits WITHOUT SAVING changes, else ESC resumes editing
You are about to leave the screen without saving your MIDI assignment
changes. If you want to exit anyway, press Enter. If you want to
resume editing, press Escape.
$ A99 INTERNAL: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

$ C12 HELP not available
Unable to run HELP. Either there is not enough memory to run HELP
or the help subsystem was not installed.
$ C14 Palette Menu not available
There are no palettes that can be found on the system. The list of
palettes, or the palettes themselves, may have been erased from
your user directory. Exit the session and correct the problem.
$ C15 Default Palette not found
The default palette is not available. The palette corresponds to
the default image mode specified in the profile. To correct the
problem, change the default image mode by editing the profile or
make sure that the default palette is correctly specified in the
list of palettes.
$ C16 No custom colors in current palette
The palette selected was constructed for use with text only. It
either has no colors defined for color mapping or only has one. At
least two custom colors are required to convert an image to a
mapped image, but more than that should be defined to give proper
results. Select a different palette.
$ C17 No batch in progress - DO ignored
DO Batch was selected, but no batch is active. The request is
ignored. A batch is active when more than one image is selected
from the list for conversion.
$ C18 Requested image mode is not active
The mode of the image selected or the default mode requested is not
available on this system. Verify your system configuration to make
sure it contains the hardware necessary to support this mode.
$ C20 ENTER exits/cancels batch, else ESC
You have interrupted a batch conversion of images. Press Enter to
cancel the batch at this point. Press Escape to resume processing.
$ C21 File not found
The image requested for conversion could not be found. Check the
spelling of the name and try again, or ask for a different file.
$ C22 No palette selected, default used
From the Select Palette menu, you chose Others, but cancelled the
function without selecting a palette. The previous palette is
still in effect. The starting palette for the session is the one
which corresponds to the default image mode in your profile.
$ C23 Sel.palette not found, default used
There is no palette with this name. The default palette is being
used instead. You may select a different palette.
$ C24 Error on file read/write
There is a problem with the disk or diskette drive. Correct the
problem and try again.
$ C25 File type is unsupported
The file you are trying to convert is not one of the types recognized
or the file's data has been corrupted.
$ C26 This TIFF image is not supported
The file you are trying to convert is a TIFF image, but it is not
one of the TIFF formats that can be handled.
$ C27 This IMDS image is not supported
The file you are trying to convert is a IMDS image, but it is not
one of the IMDS formats that can be handled.
$ C28 This image is not supported
The file you are trying to convert is not one of the formats that
can be handled.
$ C29 This TGA image is not supported
The file you are trying to convert is a TARGA image, but it is not
one of the TARGA formats that can be handled.
$ C30 Palette incompatible with adapter
The palette selected cannot be used with the video graphics available
on this system. Choose a different palette.
If the palette is for an 8514/A, the problem may be:
- the 8514/A adapter card is not installed in the proper video slot
- the card doesn't have enough memory (all sockets must be populated)
- memory chips are upside down (notches should face the same direction)
- J5 pins not connected (jumper must connect pins nearest edge of card)
- if in DOS, program HDILOAD not started (run it before starting AVC)
- if in OS/2, HDILOAD.DLL not found (check LIBPATH in CONFIG.SYS)
$ C31 Not enough memory
There is not enough memory to complete the operation. If you are
in OS/2, check your CONFIG.SYS file to make sure it permits
swapping and that SWAPPATH= provides adequate free space.
Also check the swap file drive to make sure it has 512K free.
If you are in DOS, it may be that your system has insufficient free
main memory (512K is needed). If you are slightly below the
requirement, you should cut down on the resident programs in use by
changing CONFIG.SYS to not load a device driver. Some programs,
such as PRINT, become resident the first time you run them, and you
may need to reboot to eliminate such a program. You will also need
to reboot if you change your CONFIG.SYS file.
$ C32 Not enough LIM memory
There is not enough available expanded memory to hold the image
you are trying to convert.
Exit the session, and then start the session over and try again.
Exiting may free enough expanded memory for you to proceed.
If that fails, you will not be able to convert this particular
image without adding more expanded memory to your system.
$ C33 INTERNAL: Palette cusfix too large
An internal error has occurred. Make note of the circumstances
and report the error to IBM.
$ C34 Image not supported--too large
The image is too big to be converted. Select some other image.
$ C35 Box at screen boundary
The box is at the edge of the screen.
$ C36 Box must contain some of the image
The box has been moved completely outside the area of the image.
Move it back into the image and then continue.
$ C37 Profile Default image mode invalid
The default image mode in your user profile has an erroneous value.
It is possible that the file PROFILE.!UP has been damaged, and
if so you will need to reinstall it. Check the file and then
edit your profile to select an appropriate default image mode.
$ C38 Image can not be converted--corrupt
The image cannot be used by convert. You may select another image.
$ C39 Crop box too small
The crop box must be larger than currently specified to enlarge and
convert the selected area.
$ C40 Save failed--permission denied
The image being converted is marked as a read-only file, meaning it
may not be changed. As a result, you cannot replace the original
picture with the converted version.
Use "Create new" to convert the image into a different file.
$ C41 Non-AVC file exists, save canceled
A file already exists with the same name. Either choose a different
name or use ESC to cancel the operation.
$ C42 Non-AVC image created
The image was converted and has been saved as a new file on disk.
$ C43 Non-AVC partial image created
The partial image was converted and has been saved on disk.
$ C44 No valid point size in font
Text fields contain reference to a font size which does not exist.
The text has not been converted.
It is may be that the AVC fonts have been damaged. If you think
this may be the case, delete the AVC "_FN" files from directory
SYSTEM.!AV and reinstall the AVC.
$ C45 This BMP image is not supported
The file you are trying to convert is a BMP image, but it is not
one of the BMP formats that can be handled.
$ C99 INTERNAL: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
An internal error has occurred. Make note of the circumstances
and report the error to IBM.
$ D02 Warning. Default text information is not in the palette
The palette selected has no text defined. If you want a palette
with text, choose a different palette. If no text is needed, you
may continue with this palette.
$ D03 HELP not available
Unable to run HELP. Either there is not enough memory to run HELP
or the help subsystem was not installed.
$ D04 File already exists: change name or else ESC
There is another file with the name chosen. Either use a different
name or cancel the operation.
$ D05 Selected palette not found, select another
There is no palette file with this name. The file may have been
accidentally deleted. Either choose a different palette or exit
the session and recover the palette you want from the backup diskette.
$ D06 Entry invalid, use F7 to rotate through the selections
No selection matches the characters typed, or more than one does
and the program can't tell which one you want. You can use the F7
and F8 keys to scroll through selections for this field, or you can
choose one of the selections from the Prompt menu on the action bar.
$ D07 Image capture adapter configured for protect mode
The image capture adapter has mapped I/O that was configured above
the 1 megabyte address range. This cannot be accessable in DOS but
can be in OS/2. Either run under OS/2 or reconfigure the adapter
by inserting the Reference diskette in drive A , restarting the
system, and selecting "Set configuration". Select an option for
the "Video Storage Address Select" that is in the C0000 or D0000
segment.
$ D08 Not enough custom colors present in this palette
The palette selected was constructed for use with text only. It
either has no colors defined for color mapping or only has one. At
least two custom colors are required to convert an image to a
mapped image, but more than that should be defined to give proper
results. Select a different palette.
$ D09 A palette has not been selected - select a palette
In order to produce a mapped image, you must first select a palette.
$ D10 Unable to access video storage for the image capture adapter
The video storage for the capture adapter was not detected. Insert
your Reference diskette in drive A and restart your system, then
select "View configuration" to see if the adapter has been
recognized as configured and that the "Video Storage Address
Select" selection is not in conflict with any other adapter.
If the adapter does not appear, then review instructions on
installing the image capture adapter. If it is listed but there
is a conflict, select "Set configuration" and select a different
location for the video storage. If there are no conflicts, then
select "Test computer". This selection will test your computer
including the capture adapter.
$ D11 Image capture video storage is in conflict with other storage
The image capture memory mapped video storage has been assigned a
region that is being used by another device. Run manual
configuration from your reference diskette. The configuration
screen should indicate any conflicts of resources.
Some cards may take up resources not known to the configuration
procedure, such as an expansion memory adapter. If you are in DOS
and have a device driver for expanded memory, the segments used for
expanded memory may overlap those for the capture card. Read the
documentation on the adapter to determine if it is or could be
using the same memory address space. If so, change the image
capture video storage address region to a region that does not
conflict, or change the address space of the other adapter.
$ D12 Not enough memory available to accomplish action requested
There is not enough memory to complete the operation. If you are
in OS/2, check your CONFIG.SYS file to make sure it permits
swapping and that SWAPPATH= provides adequate free space.
Also check the swap file drive to make sure it has 512K free.
If you are in DOS, it may be that your system has insufficient free
main memory (512K is needed). If you are slightly below the
requirement, you should cut down on the resident programs in use by
changing CONFIG.SYS to not load a device driver. Some programs,
such as PRINT, become resident the first time you run them, and you
may need to reboot to eliminate such a program.
$ D13 Image capture device driver not found, check CONFIG.SYS file
In order to capture images in OS/2, you must have the image capture
device driver installed (it is not used in DOS). The device driver
program must be on your system, and the CONFIG.SYS file must have a
statement of the form:
DEVICE= (path) ICDR.SYS
Edit CONFIG.SYS to include the statement and reboot your system.
Watch for any error messages concerning the device driver during
system startup. If the path information is incorrect, the system
will not be able to find the device driver and it will not be installed.
$ D14 Warning: input signal appears to be poor
The input device to the PS/2 Image/Capture adapter is having trouble
synchronizing with the signal generated by the attached device.
Check the cable connections from the input device to the adapter.
If your device is a VCR, it may be generating a poor synchroniza-
tion signal while in "still frame" mode. If it has a manual
adjustment for "still frame" mode, you may be able to improve the
signal with the adjustment.
$ D15 Warning: Horizontal centering is at an extreme.
Usually adjusting the horizontal lock position to an extreme will
cause the image color to be incorrect or the input signal of the
devices attached to the PS/2 Image/Capture adapter will not be
synchronized with the timing on the adapter. However, some devices
may require such an extreme setting.
Using the View, 75% function will allow you to adjust the
horizontal lock position by using the left and right movement keys
or by moving the mouse.
$ D16 Image capture adapter not installed
An image capture adapter is required to digitize images but an
adapter is not installed or the system has disabled it. If there
is no adapter, install a supported image capture adapter. See
"System Requirements" for information on the adapters required to
digitize images.
If an adapter has been installed, insert your Reference diskette in
drive A and restart your system. Then select "View configuration"
to see if the adapter has been recognized. If the adapter does not
appear, then review instructions on installing the image capture
adapter. If it does appear, then select "Test computer". This
selection will test your computer including the capture adapter.
$ D17 Cannot load file IATRAN.DLL or IVTRAN.DLL xxxx
The file is not in directory SYSTEM.!AV, or it has been damaged.
Reinstall this file.
The number following the message gives further information:
1021 -- File cannot be found or cannot be opened
1022, 1023, 1024, 1025 -- File is damaged
1026, 1081 -- Insufficient memory to load the file
It may be possible to resolve a problem of insufficient memory by
eliminating some resident programs (in DOS) or by making more disk
swapping space available (in OS/2).
$ D18 Image capture adapter is currently in use
The image capture adapter is already being used by another task.
You will have to wait for the other task to release the image
capture adapter, or force it to do so.

The operation in process was stopped. Some changes may have
already been made.
$ D20 Action cancelled by ESC, any change applied has been undone
The operation in process was stopped. No changes took effect.
$ D28 File not found or has an invalid form
The file requested does not exist. Check the spelling of the name
and try again, or ask for a different file.
If you are sure that the name is correct, then the problem is that
the file is not being recognized. Either it is not an AVC file or
the file data has been damaged in some way.
$ D29 Action cancelled
You started an operation and then cancelled it. The message merely
confirms that fact.
$ D32 Action cancelled by ESC; image not saved
The operation has been cancelled. The digitized image has not been
written to the file.
$ D80 As saving proceeds: either wait, ALT V next view, or ESC cancels

the current image, press Escape.
$ D81 Press ENTER to return to the view of the image being saved
To look back at the image being saved, press Enter.
$ D83 ENTER resumes file saving in progress, ESC deletes file from disk
You have stopped the save that was in process, but the newly mapped
image has been partly written to disk on top of your original. If
you cancel now, you will lose both the mapped version and the original.
Press Enter to continue the save. The original will be replaced by
the mapped image. Press Escape to stop the save and delete the image
altogether.
$ D84 Latest change has been UNDONE
The last change made has been undone. The image is restored to the
way it was before you made the change.
If you select UNDO again at this point, your change will return.

$ D999 INTERNAL: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
An internal error has occurred. Make note of the circumstances
and report the error to IBM.
$ F00 File not found
The file does not exist or the drive specified is not valid. Check the
spelling of the name and try again, or ask for a different file.
$ F01 File access currently denied
The file is not available. Either it is currently in use by someone
else, or it has been marked as a read-only file.
If the file is a read-only file, make a copy under a different name and
use that copy or have the owner change the file's protection status.
$ F02 Too many files open
This file cannot be accessed because the number of files now
in use has already reached the limit. If this situation recurs,
change your CONFIG.SYS file to permit more files to be open.
$ F03 File is in use
The file is currently in use by someone else. Try again later.
$ F04 Error on file read/write
There is a problem with the disk, the diskette drive, or the printer.
You may be trying to write to a read-only disk or diskette. Correct
the problem and try again.
$ F06 File is protected
The file requested cannot be accessed. You may need to have the
owner change the file's protection status or give you a copy of
the file under a different name for you to work with.
$ F07 Too many referenced applications
The application table for this story contains too many application
references to be held in memory. A reference is an "Applic" type
entry in the application table or an entry in the "Reference" column
for an individual file.
Since you can refer to images and audio from referenced applications,
AVA keeps an internal list of all their names. Each call to a story
adds to the list for each different reference name in the application
table, even for a story in the same application, and the names are
removed when the called story ends. The capacity of the list depends
on the length of the names, but a total of about 40 names is typical.
Review the application tables for the stories involved and eliminate
any references that are not needed to run the stories. If this does
not solve the problem, you will need to copy files from the referenced
application into the story's application to eliminate the need for a
reference.
$ F08 Not a valid AVC file name
The file cannot be read. The problem may be due to any of these
situations:
- The file is new, and the name given has invalid characters
(check your system documentation for rules on file names).
- The file is new, and the name exceeds the maximum length
supported by the system (check your system documentation
for rules on file names).
- The name is already in use as the name of a directory.
- The file is not an AVC file.
- The file's data has been damaged.
$ F09 File exists: change name or ESC
There is another file with the name chosen. Either use a
different name or cancel the operation.
$ F17 Not enough memory
There is not enough memory to read the file. If you are in OS/2, check
your CONFIG.SYS file to make sure it permits swapping and that
SWAPPATH= provides adequate free space. Also check the swap file
drive to make sure it has 512K free.
If you are in DOS, it may be that your system has insufficient free
main memory (512K is needed). If you are slightly below the
requirement, you should cut down on the resident programs in use by
changing CONFIG.SYS to not load a device driver. Some programs,
such as PRINT, become resident the first time you run them, and
you may need to reboot to eliminate such a program.
$ F18 File not saved - no space on device
Your disk is full. If you have access to another drive, you can try
saving the file on that drive. If you are using OS/2, you may be able
to hotkey to DOS, free some disk space by deleting files, and then try
again to save the file. Otherwise, you will have to cancel the
operation (your changes will be lost, but your original file should be
intact), exit, and free disk space.
$ F21 Too many files in use
This file cannot be accessed because the number of files now in use has
already reached the limit supported by the AVC.
$ F22 File is not of the type requested
The file contents don't match the type implied by the file's extension.
Check the name and type and try again, or ask for a different file.
$ F33 I/O error on file seek
There is a problem with the disk or diskette drive. Correct the
problem and try again.
$ F34 I/O error on file read
The file cannot be read. Either there is a problem with the disk
or diskette drive or the file's data has been damaged. Correct the
problem and try again.
$ F35 I/O error on file write
The file cannot be written. There is a problem with the disk or
diskette drive. Correct the problem and try again. You may have
to delete the file if it was partially written.
$ F37 File extension and type mismatch
The file extension in the file name does not match the type specified.
Check the name and type and try again, or ask for a different file.
$ F39 Drive not ready or drive invalid
There is a problem with the disk or diskette drive. Correct the
problem and try again.
$ F90 List was not updated
Because the application list is marked as read-only, it could not
be updated to reflect the change you just made, although the change
itself did take effect.
$ F99 INTERNAL: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
An internal error has occurred. Make note of the circumstances
and report the error to IBM.
$ I00 Copy buffer is being resized
You selected the "resize" function. The content of the copy buffer
is being resized to the requested area. The result will be displayed
at the current cursor position.
$ I01 Relative field may not be sized
This field is defined as having relative text spacing. For a relative
field, the left and right margins are established on the text spacing
screen and the field's width cannot be adjusted with the "move field"
function.
If you want to adjust the field's width, either change the definition
from relative to absolute (change REL to ABS on the text spacing
screen) or choose a style that is already defined as absolute and
change the field to that style.
$ I02 ENTER exits without save, else ESC
You are about to exit without saving the changes to this image
file. If you want to exit anyway, press Enter. If you want to
resume editing, press Escape.
$ I05 xxxxxxxxxxx mode xxxx does not exist
The picture or default mode shown is not supported by the system.
If the message shows an invalid default mode, correct the problem
by changing the default image mode in the configuration file. If
the message shows an invalid picture mode, the image you are trying
to access cannot be processed by the AVC. The number in the
message is the invalid mode number in hexadecimal.
$ I06 Copy buffer is currently empty
You selected a function which operates on the contents of the copy
buffer but nothing has been "copied" into the copy buffer. You
must define the area to be operated on before the function is
invoked. To define the area to operate on, use either the "copy"
function or the "get and copy" function.
$ I07 Text is being rewritten
All text fields are being rewritten on the screen. You either
selected the "write all fields" function or changed the definition
of one or more of the text styles. This message displays while the
text rewrite is not visible on the screen.
$ I08 Incorrect AVA syntax
You have specified an AVA field name which does not conform to
the system file name conventions. Check your system documentation
for rules on file names, correct the problem, and try again.
$ I09 Copy buffer is being rotated
You selected the "rotate" function. The content of the copy buffer
is being rotated by the requested amount. The result will be
displayed at the current cursor position.
$ I11 xxxxxxxxxxx mode xxxx is not active
The picture or default mode shown is not available on this system.
Verify your system configuration to make sure it contains the
hardware necessary to support this mode. If the message shows an
invalid default mode, you may correct the problem by editing your
AVC profile and changing the default image mode. If the message
shows an invalid picture mode, the image you are trying to access
cannot be processed on this system. The number in the message is
the mode number in hexadecimal.
If the mode number is 8514, the problem may be:
- the 8514/A adapter card is not installed in the proper video slot
- the card doesn't have enough memory (all sockets must be populated)
- memory chips are upside down (notches should face the same direction)
- J5 pins not connected (jumper must connect pins nearest edge of card)
- if in DOS, program HDILOAD not started (run it before starting AVC)
- if in OS/2, HDILOAD.DLL not found (check LIBPATH in CONFIG.SYS)
$ I12 Copy buffer is being mirrored
You selected the "mirror" function. The content of the copy buffer
is being mirrored in the requested direction. The result will be
displayed at the current cursor position.
$ I14 Finding colors in the fixed/std map
The map in the copy buffer is different from the fixed/standard map
for the image being edited. Therefore, the colors in the copy
buffer are being changed to fixed/standard colors from the map for
the image being edited.
$ I15 Merging the color maps
You selected an image to "get and copy" and defined the area to be
copied. As part of the copy operation, the color maps for the
custom image being edited and the image selected are being combined.
$ I16 Reducing the image colors to xxxx
You are saving an image whose color map was previously merged
during a "get and copy" operation. Now, the number of custom
colors in the map is being reduced to the appropriate number of
colors. The number of target custom colors is shown in the
message.
$ I17 Undo buffer has different color map
The color map for the image in the undo buffer is different from the
color map for the image being edited. You can terminate the "paste"
function by pressing Escape and then try the "undo" function again.
$ I18 Press ENTER to begin selections
You selected the "set alter color" function. To make your first
color selection for the from/to color at the cursor location, press
Enter. Otherwise, move the cursor to the appropriate from/to
position, and press Enter to select the color desired.
When the from/to color is not defined (i.e., there is a dot in the
middle of the field), the from/to color defaults to the current
draw color. If you want to terminate the operation, press Escape
at any time.
When you finish making your from/to color selections, move the
cursor to Exit and press Enter. To clear all the selections made,
move the cursor to Clear and press Enter.
$ I21 Copy is different mode
You selected an image for the "get and copy" function which is in a
different mode than the image you are editing. The image for "get
and copy" must be in the same mode as the image being edited.
Select another image and try again.
$ I22 Get of the palette complete
You selected a different palette to use with the image that you are
editing. The new palette's color map is now the color map for the
image being edited. Any colors in the image which are not defined
in the new color map may be changed. This could result in some
undesirable color changes.
$ I23 Determining area to fill
You selected the "fill" function. The system is determining the
area to fill by comparing consecutive pel color values starting
from the current cursor position with the value at the cursor
position until a mismatch is found. This process is repeated until
a "closed" shape is defined or the image border is reached. The
"closed" shape of pels with the same color as the cursor position
defines the area that will be filled.
After the area is determined, its contents are changed based on the
option you selected: draw color, transparent color, contents of the
copy buffer, or pattern using the contents of the copy buffer.
$ I25 xxxxxxxx kilobytes available memory
This message shows the number of kilobytes of memory available at this
time. This number does not include any LIM memory on the system.
$ I26 Define area to be copied
You selected an image for the "get and copy" function. If you want
to define the area to copy, press Enter. If you would like to
cancel the function, press Escape or select the "undo" function.
$ I27 Cursor is not in a text field
You selected a function which operates on a text field but the
cursor is not on a valid text field. The function was cancelled.
Move the cursor to a valid text field and try again.
$ I28 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx saved
The image has been saved in a file with the given name.
$ I29 x:xxx y:yyy @x:xxx @y:yyy
This message displays the current cursor location. As you move the
cursor on the screen, the "x", "y", change in "x", and change in
"y" values are updated accordingly. Each pel move is represented
by an increment in the values shown. The origin for the "delta x"
and "delta y" values is set to the cursor location the last time
you pressed Enter.
$ I30 Undo currently not available
The undo buffer is empty. There is no function to undo or not enough
memory to complete the undo function.
$ I31 No literal fields to convert
You selected the "convert text to image" function but there are no
literal fields on the image. Therefore, the function terminated
without any changes to the image.
$ I32 ENTER discards map change, else ESC
After changing the color map, you pressed Escape to indicate that
the changes should be discarded.
Press Enter or mouse button 1 to confirm that this is what you want
to do. Your changes will be discarded and the function ended.
To keep the changes and continue the function, press Escape.
$ I33 Maximum limit of fields reached
The total number of text fields plus triggers on the image has
reached the maximum limit supported by the system. You cannot add
any text fields or triggers until their total number is reduced.
$ I35 Text converted to image
You selected the "convert text to image" function. All existing
text fields have been merged into the image plane. These are no
longer considered valid text fields.
$ I36 Palette xxxxxxxxxxxxx not found
The palette with the given file name was not found. The system is
using the appropriate default palette instead. Correct the error
and try again.
$ I37 ENTER converts literals, else ESC
You selected the "convert text to image" function. If you want all
existing literal fields to be merged with the image plane, press
Enter. These fields would no longer be valid text fields. If you
want to terminate this function without any changes to the image,
press Escape.
$ I38 Color xxx is not in the color map
The color pointed to by the cursor is not defined in the image's
palette. You may have done a "get palette" function and selected
a palette which does not have this color defined.
$ I42 Normal style now active
You selected the normal style mode for writing text characters.
All typed characters will be written using the normal
style definition for the active text style. To switch to the
highlight style, repeat the "set highlight" function.
$ I43 Highlight style now active

ALT+Z to go into zoom mode, and then set the viewport.
$ I45 8514/A does not have enough memory
The 8514/A adapter is installed but without the full memory.
You will need to upgrade the adapter to display 8514/A images.
$ I46 STYLE xx: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxx
This message shows information about the text style definition for
the active text field.
The first two characters are the style number.
The next string of characters is the style description from the
text style definition.
The last three characters (REL or ABS) indicate whether the field
spacing for this style is relative or absolute, as specified by the
"define text spacing" function. If it is relative, field spacing
of fields in this style is defined by information in the "text
spacing" definition. If it is absolute, the field spacing
information is ignored and the fields are added wherever the cursor
is located.
$ I48 Set mix color
You selected the "mix color" function. If you want to mix a color
other than the one the cursor is on, move the cursor to the color
you would like to mix and go to the action bar to select the

$ I89 Determining fill outline
You selected the "fill to outline" function. The system is looking
for a closed "shape" drawn in the draw color. The search for this
outline starts by comparing consecutive pel color values starting
from the current cursor position with the value of the draw color
until a match is found.
This process is repeated until the "closed" shape is defined or the
image border is reached. The "closed" shape of pels with the same
color as the draw color defines the area that will be filled.
After the area is determined, its contents is changed based on
the option you selected: draw color, transparent color, contents
of the copy buffer, or pattern using the contents of the copy buffer.
$ I90 No color changes specified
You selected the "alter color" but no color changes were specified
via the "set alter color" function. To correct the problem, set the

Try again later.
$ I110 Gun value is out of range
One of the RGB gun value fields specified is outside the valid
range for this image's mode. The range for the gun values is
determined by the number of bits per pel in the image mode. For
example, if one pel is defined by 8 bits, then the valid gun value
range is 0 to 255. Similarly, if one pel is defined by 6 bits, the
gun value range is 0 to 63. Correct the problem and try again.

the saturation can be 0 is when the hue is -1. Correct the problem
and try again.
$ I116 Left margin exceeds right margin
The left margin offset overlaps the value of the right margin
offset. This means that the offset of the first character in the
text field is greater than the offset for the last character
allowed in the field. Correct the problem by changing the values
of the left and/or right margins for this text style and try again.

- The target file is read-only and could not be accessed.
- The file was not found.
- There was no room on the device to finish copying all the files.
$ L50 Copy done, xx files copied
The "copy" operation has completed. The message shows the number
of files successfully copied. It is the same as the number of lines in
the marked block.
$ L51 File exists: change name or ESC
There is another file with the name chosen. Either use a different
name or cancel the operation.
$ L52 Path not found
The given path does not exist in the specified drive. Correct the
problem and try again. It may be that the path is not the name of a
directory, but the name of a file.
$ L53 PRINTER error
There is a problem with the printer. Correct the problem and try
again.
$ L54 Print in process, press ENTER to pause or ESC to stop
Your print request was started. If you need to stop it momentarily,
press Enter. To cancel, press Escape.
$ L55 Print stopped by ESC
You pressed Escape to cancel a "print" function.
$ L56 ENTER (else ESC) deletes all files in application
The directory being removed contains files. If you want all files
in the directory deleted before the directory is removed, press Enter.
Once you complete the "remove directory" operation, those files cannot
be recovered. If you want to cancel the operation, press Escape.
$ L57 Duplicate list lines not allowed
You have added a line which is a duplicate of another line in the list.
You cannot have the same file on two lines in an application. The line
has been restored with its original contents.
$ L58 Error running requested program
An error occurred while running the requested program. Either the
program was not found or there was not enough memory available for
the program to run.
$ L59 Press any key to return to AVC
Requested program completed execution. Press a key to return to
AVC operation.
$ L60 List cannot grow
You are trying to move the cursor beyond the end of the list.
If your list is on a read-only drive or marked as a read-only file,
the operating system will not permit it to be changed. Moving the
cursor beyond the end of the list has the effect of adding blank
lines at the end, which would be a change.
It may be that you are in the middle of moving lines in a read-write
list. If so, you need to place them ahead of an existing line. Use
CTL+End to determine what the last existing line is. You cannot put
the moved lines after that line.
To move lines to the bottom of the list, first go to the end of the
list and cursor down one line to create a blank line. Then move the
lines to the end.
$ L61 One moment, please...
Internal processing is taking place. You must wait for it to finish.
$ L62 Print at pause, press any key to resume or ESC to stop
You requested that printing stop momentarily. Press a key to
continue printing. Press Escape to cancel the rest of the
printout.
$ L63 Number of files added to end of list: xx
The application directory had files that were not in the list. They
have been added at the end.
$ L64 Function not valid for file type
The function doesn't apply to this particular line on the list. For
example, you can search a library, application, or a DOS directory,
but not a file.
If you are trying to search within this particular list, use the
"find next context" function (ALT+F).
$ L65 Directory empty
The directory you selected contains no files.
$ L66 Cannot write to read only file
The application list you are trying to update is either on a read-only
drive or marked as a read-only file. The operating system will not
permit it to be changed.
$ L67 Function not available to read only application
The application list you are working with is either on a read-only
drive or marked as a read-only file. As a result, you can only browse
through the list, scan, or copy single files. You may not add, delete,
move, or change any lines, mark blocks, or view a reference (which
would add lines to the list).
$ L68 Nothing to Copy
You are attempting to paste some lines, but they were not first cut
or they have been discarded. Cut the lines you want and then repeat
the function.
$ L69 Disk full, xx files copied
There was not enough room on the disk or diskette to copy all the files
you indicated. The message indicates how many were actually copied.
$ L70 Number of files converted of total requested: xx out of yy
The message shows the number of MIDI files converted to audio files.
Your original files are unchanged.
If a file was not converted, it could be for any of these reasons:
- The MIDI file was not found.
- An audio file of the same name already exists (you should either
delete the audio file or rename the MIDI file).
- Your disk is full.
$ L99 INTERNAL: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
An internal error has occurred. Make note of the circumstances
and report the error to IBM.
$ R01 Story stopped by ESC
Story stopped by ESC -- audio "A" = xx.x
Story stopped by ESC -- audio "A" = xx.x audio "B" = xx.x
Story execution has stopped because the Escape key was pressed.
If audio was playing, the message also shows the elapsed audio time
at the point of interruption in seconds and tenths. If two tracks
were playing, both times are shown.
Absolute audio time can be used instead of a label on a WAIT, and
you can use ESC to determine what that absolute time is when you
are synchronizing a story.
$ R02 BREAK POINT reached
Story execution has been stopped because the current story line is
marked as a break point. If stopping at this point is no longer
desired, remove the break point mark and start the story again.
$ R03 Story changed, save and continue run or quit without saving
This story is about to end, but the changes made to it have not yet
been saved. To save the changes, press ALT+F4. To disregard the
changes and leave the story in its original form, press F3.
After exiting the story, press ALT+T to continue the "tell".
$ R06 Intermediate buffer space exceeded
The intermediate buffer for evaluating variables on the current story
line is not big enough for the variables involved at this point in the
story. You will need to make some simplifications in the story to get
around the problem.
The buffer holds intermediate values of expressions being evaluated,
parse templates, and evaluated arguments being passed to a called
function, procedure, or story. It may be that the total length of all
the arguments being passed is too large even though individually they
are 255 bytes or less. If this is the case, you may need to use
exposed variables or common knowledge instead of passing arguments.
When a story line calls a function or procedure, that line's evaluation
remains pending while the called procedure executes, leaving somewhat
less space in the intermediate buffer. Too deep a calling nest may be
causing the problem.
$ R07 Not enough memory -- symbols
There is not enough memory available to create required internal
symbol tables.
The message applies to DOS main memory space, which is used for
symbols (i.e., variables and labels) and some parts of stories,
audio, pictures, text, and triggers. The main contributors to
the memory demand are:
- calls from large stories to other large stories
- screens with a large number of triggers and text fields all
shown at the same time
- lengthy audio
- large numbers of variables with long names and lengthy values
Restructure your story to cut its size (or make more memory
available). This will also improve the story's performance.
$ R08 Not enough memory -- procedure
There is not enough memory available to create the required
internal dictionary associated with the procedure/function call.
The message applies to DOS main memory space, which is used for
symbols (i.e., variables and labels) and some parts of stories,
audio, pictures, text, and triggers. The main contributors to
the memory demand are:
- calls from large stories to other large stories
- screens with a large number of triggers and text fields all
shown at the same time
- lengthy audio
- large numbers of variables with long names and lengthy values
Restructure your story to cut its size (or make more memory
available). This will also improve the story's performance.
$ R09 Too many nested calls
The structure of the story has caused the maximum nest level to
been reached. Each time a CALL statement is used a new nest
level is created and exists until the return from the called
routine. Subsequent use of a CALL statement from within the
called routine causes yet another nest level to be created, and
so on. Change the structure of the story so that calls within
calls occur less frequently.
$ R10 Too many files open
This file cannot be accessed because the number of files now
in use has already reached the limit. If this situation recurs,
change your CONFIG.SYS file to permit more files to be open.
$ R11 Incomplete DO, IF, or SELECT block
An END statement, which signifies the end of a DO, IF, or
SELECT block, has been omitted. Add an END statement at the
end of the block.
$ R12 THEN missing
The required THEN keyword has been omitted from the IF construct.
Add the THEN keyword immediately following the first expression.
$ R13 LEAVE or ITERATE outside loop
LEAVE or ITERATE was encountered, but not in a DO / END loop.
Make sure the statement has been placed at the proper location or
delete it.
$ R14 FOR variable: not a positive integer
The result of the expression following the FOR keyword must be a
positive whole number. Correct the expression and try it again.
$ R15 DO variable: not a number
The result of an expression used in the DO statement must be a number.
Verify the expressions used, correct any errors, and try it again.
$ R16 WHEN or OTHERWISE missing
Either the required keyword WHEN or the required keyword
OTHERWISE has been omitted somewhere within the SELECT block.
Add the WHEN or OTHERWISE keyword at the appropriate spot.
$ R17 Too many nested "DO" loops
The limit for active nested DO groups is 30. Simplify the story
logic to use fewer DO constructs.
$ R18 SIGNAL or TELL from within "DO" block
The SIGNAL or TELL verb was inside a DO / END loop. Revise the
story logic to avoid this construction.
$ R19 Story changed, must be saved to execute TELL
When the TELL line is executed, this story will be discarded from
memory. Changes have been made to it which have not yet been saved.
Press ALT+F4 to save this story. Then press ALT+T to continue with
the run (and execute the TELL).
$ R21 Name violates HRULES
The variable name does not comply with the minimum-maximum name
formation rules established with the HRULES statement. Change
the name so that it does comply, or change the HRULES setting.
$ R22 HSEND: code must be 21-23
The value for argument 1 of the HSEND function must be one of the
numbers 21, 22, or 23.
$ R23 Variable name too long
The expanded value of the compound variable name exceeds the maximum
length of 250 positions. Use a shorter name.
$ R24 Variable value too long
The contents of the variable is longer than 255 positions. Use a
shorter value.
$ R25 Variable name expected
The instruction must have a variable name at the appropriate position.
It either had no name or had some other symbol at that spot.
DROP: Used to discard one or more variables. The variable names are
listed after the word DROP.
PROCEDURE EXPOSE: Used to share one or more specific variables,
and only those, with the caller. The names of the shared variables
are listed after the word EXPOSE.
UPPER: Used to convert the contents of one or more variables to
upper case. The variable names are listed after the word UPPER.
$ R26 Comma missing from argument list
The arguments specified in the argument list for the function
have not all been separated by commas. Ensure that a comma has
been placed between each specific argument and try it again.
$ R27 Unmatched parenthesis in argument list
Within the argument list for the function there is an extra left
or right parenthesis, indicating that a parenthesis is missing.
Add the missing parenthesis and try it again.
$ R28 Invalid argument or wrong number of arguments
A function call may not have more than 10 arguments.
If the call was for a built-in function, one of the following is the
case:
- A required argument is missing or evaluates to a null string.
- There are too many arguments.
- An argument's value does not conform to the particular requirements
of the function (such as must be a number, must be positive).
Check the book for the definition of the function. Then correct the
line as necessary and try it again.
$ R29 Invalid name or label
The name does not conform to the naming rules. The only characters
allowed in a name are A-Z, a-z, 0-9, #, @, !, ?, and underscore.
Lowercase letters are treated as uppercase.
These rules also apply:
- The name may not begin with a digit
- # or @ may only appear as the first character and must be followed
by at least one other character
Although the period is not valid in a name, it can be used to join
names to express a compound name. A colon at the end of a name
indicates that the name is a label.
$ R30 Unable to restore "saved state"
Not enough memory was available to completely restore the screen
for restarting at this point in the story.
$ R31 Invalid syntax
The construct of the statement(s) on the line has syntax errors.
Verify each statement, correct any errors, and try it again.
$ R32 Invalid expression
The line has at least one invalid expression. Verify the construct
of all expressions specified on the line, correct any errors, and
try it again.
A typical cause of the problem is an arithmetic statement where some
fields are not numbers. For instance:
x = y + 2
is invalid if "y" doesn't hold a number. If this is the first time
that "y" has been used in the story, its value is "Y", the name of
the field itself.
$ R33 Semicolon expected after expression
A semicolon was expected as the next value to be encountered, but
something else was found. If multiple statements on a line, make
sure that each statement was ended with a semicolon. Correct
typos, if any, and try it again.
$ R34 Unexpected keyword
A keyword was encountered in the statement where no keyword was
expected. It may be that a variable was given a name which
matched a keyword. Make sure that all applicable keywords have
been placed in the proper spot, or remove the extraneous keyword
from the statement.
$ R35 Non-numeric value in expression
The result derived from an expression does not resolve to a
numeric value. Change the expression or components of the
expression so that it will evaluate to a numeric value.
$ R36 Logical value not 0 or 1
IF requires an expression whose value is 0 or 1. The result
derived from the expression resolves to something else. Change
the expression or components of the expression so that the ending
result resolves to a value of 0 or 1.
$ R37 Unable to load function
FUNCADD specifies a linkage to an entry point in your own module,
and the linkage could not be established. It may be that the
module was not found or could not be loaded or that it doesn't
have an entry point of the name indicated.
If you indicate a specific path, only that path is searched. If
you do not indicate a path, the system uses LIBPATH from your
CONFIG.SYS to determine where to look for the module. The
current directory or SYSTEM.!AV will not be searched unless
explicitly named or listed in LIBPATH.
$ R38 Function available only in OS/2
The function you selected can only be done in OS/2, not in DOS.
The selection has been ignored.
$ R39 File name too long
The fully-qualified file name may not be longer than 25 characters,
including any special characters such as the backslash or colon.
If the name is resolved from a variable, check the contents of the
variable to make sure it holds the intended name. Check spelling of
the name. Shorten the name to fit within 25 characters. You may
omit the file extension.
$ R40 Too many fields/triggers
For SHOW or PASTE: the screen can hold 256 triggers and update
fields, and the limit has been reached. Reorganize your story to
display fewer fields at the same time.
For INPUT: a limit of 20 fields can be individually identified.
Rearrange the image or use multiple partial images so that you can
use INPUT without a need to list individual fields.
$ R41 Invalid PARSE template
The parsing template specified has one or more errors. Examine the
template for typos or improper use of allowed components, correct the
errors, and try it again.
$ R42 Called story needs to be retokenized
The story is downlevel. Press CTRL T to force retokenization.
This new version of the story should be saved.
$ R43 Divide by zero
The calculation specified has values which result in an attempt to
divide by zero. Dividing by zero is invalid.
$ R44 Arithmetic overflow
The result of a calculation exceeds the maximum value that can be
handled.
$ R45 LABEL defined more than once
The same label (format label:) has been defined more than once
within the story. Change the duplicate label to another name.
$ R46 LABEL not found
The story does not have the label indicated. Check the spelling
of the label on this statement or of the label itself.
$ R47 Invalid art color specified
An art color that does not exist within the image has been
specified on the COLOR statement. Change the art color in
error to a valid number and try it again.
$ R48 System cannot display this image
You are attempting to display an image in a video mode your system
doesn't support. You cannot display this image.
If the image is for an 8514/A, the problem may be:
- the 8514/A adapter card is not installed in the proper video slot
- the card doesn't have enough memory (all sockets must be populated)
- memory chips are upside down (notches should face the same direction)
- J5 pins not connected (jumper must connect pins nearest edge of card)
- if in DOS, program HDILOAD not started (run it before starting AVC)
- if in OS/2, HDILOAD.DLL not found (check LIBPATH in CONFIG.SYS)
$ R49 Alt "X" requires COLOR/CLEAR with background established
You are attempting to set partial source coordinates but either
the screen is in text mode or the line is not a COLOR or CLEAR
statement. Change the line to a COLOR or CLEAR statement and/or
change the story logic to establish an APA video mode.
$ R50 Alt "Y" requires SHOW/PASTE/COLOR/CLEAR with background established
You are attempting to set partial target coordinates but either
the screen is in text mode or the line is not a SHOW, PASTE,
COLOR, CLEAR statement. Change the line to a SHOW, PASTE, COLOR
or CLEAR statement and/or change the story logic to establish an
APA video mode.
$ R56 Story too complex, internal storage exceeded
The story has become complex enough at this point to have overrun
the interpreter's internal memory buffers. All of the following
contribute to complexity:
- number of IF-THEN-ELSE statements being evaluated
- number of TELL statements executed to this point
- number of nested CALLs, including built-in functions
- number of active DO loops using counters
- number of terms in active arithmetic or logical expressions,
and extent of expression nesting with parentheses
Revise the story to make it simpler.
$ R58 Unable to allocate memory
There is not enough memory to continue the story. If you are in
OS/2, check your CONFIG.SYS file to make sure it permits
swapping and that SWAPPATH= provides adequate free space.
Also check the swap file drive to make sure its free space
is at least 512K.
If you are in DOS, it may be that your system has insufficient
free main memory (512K is needed). If you are slightly below the
requirement, you should cut down on the resident programs in use
by changing CONFIG.SYS to not load a device driver. Some
programs, such as PRINT, become resident the first time you run
them, and you may need to reboot to eliminate such a program.
You may be able to cut down your story's size by avoiding:
- calls from large stories to other large stories
- screens with a large number of triggers and text fields all
shown at the same time
$ R59 Invalid use of "ON" statement
The "event" identified in the ON statement must be one of:
- a number in the range 0 to 511
- the reserved word KEY or TRIGGER
- the name of a trigger, conforming to AVA's naming rules
It may be that the trigger has been named such that is doesn't follow
the naming rules. The only characters allowed in a name are A-Z, a-z,
0-9, #, @, !, ?, period, and underscore. These rules also apply:
- The name may not begin with a digit or period
- # or @ may only appear as the first character, must be followed
by at least one other character, and may not be immediately followed
by a period
$ R60 Video adapter not installed
If you are using SETVIDEO(), the adapter referred to by the statement
is either not installed in your machine or not installed properly.
If adapter is the 8514/A, the problem may be:
- the adapter card is not installed in the proper video slot
- the card doesn't have enough memory (all sockets must be populated)
- memory chips are upside down (notches should face the same direction)
- J5 pins not connected (jumper must connect pins nearest edge of card)
- if in DOS, program HDILOAD not started (run it before starting AVC)
- if in OS/2, HDILOAD.DLL not found (check LIBPATH in CONFIG.SYS)
If you selected "Browse motion video", motion video is not functional.
You must have OS/2 Version 1.2 or later, with appropriate statements in
your CONFIG.SYS file. Motion video is not supported in DOS.
Check your CONFIG.SYS file. It needs:
- reference to MMEDIA\DLL in the LIBPATH statement
- DEVICE statements MMOTION.SYS and MMVAINIT.SYS
- the statement SET MMEDIA=C:\MMEDIA
$ R62 No such audio label
The audio label specified cannot be found in the list of valid
labels for the current audio file. Make sure the label has been
typed correctly or change it to one of the valid labels.
$ R63 Invalid audio combination
You are trying to play two audio files at the same time. One of
them is stereo or MIDI, and there is a conflict.
Since stereo uses both channels, no other audio can be played with it.
If you need to play two sounds at once, use audio recorded at voice or
music quality.
MIDI can only be played by itself or with voice-quality audio. In
addition, if you are playing MIDI with a voice file, you must start
the MIDI first.
$ R64 Audio start beyond end position
The audio starting position is beyond either the boundary of the
end position specified or the end of the entire audio segment.
Change the start position to a lesser value and try it again.
$ R65 FINIS invalid as audio start
The keyword FINIS, which means end-of-audio-file, was specified
as the audio starting position. Change the audio starting
position to something else and try it again.
$ R66 BEGIN invalid as audio end
The keyword BEGIN, which means beginning-of-audio-file, was
specified as the audio ending position. Change the audio ending
position to something else and try it again.
$ R67 Unresolvable WAIT value
The value specified for the wait period does not resolve to
a number or an audio sync point. If specifying an audio
sync point, make sure the channel identifier is A or B, which
are the only two values allowed. Otherwise, correct any
typos and try it again.
$ R68 MIDI must be played on channel "B"
Your audio file is a MIDI file. You must use channel B for it,
not channel A.
$ R72 Not enough memory -- resource
The system has run out of memory while trying to load a story or
execute a CLEAR or COLOR statement.
The message applies to DOS main memory space, which is used for
symbols (i.e., variables and labels) and some parts of stories,
audio, pictures, text, and triggers. The main contributors to
the memory demand are:
- calls from large stories to other large stories
- screens with a large number of triggers and text fields all
shown at the same time
- lengthy audio
- large numbers of variables with long names and lengthy values
Restructure your story to cut its size (or make more memory
available). This will also improve the story's performance.
$ R79 File component not found
You have specified TEXT for a picture that has no text or have
indicated a font size that does not exist. It may be that the file
name is wrong, but happens to be the same as some other file.
$ R80 Cannot write to "read only" file
The story you are trying to update is either on a read-only drive
or marked as a read-only file. The operating system will not
permit it to be changed.
You can save this story as a new story on a read-write drive.
Use the "create new" option to do so.
$ R99 INTERNAL: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
An internal error has occurred. Make note of the circumstances
and report the error to IBM.
$ S01 No such file
You are attempting to edit the image or audio file specified on the
current story line, but the name is either typed incorrectly or is an

$ S43 Error on text file read or write
If you are importing a file, the file contains corrupt data and
no part of it has been read. Use a different copy of the file.
If you are exporting a file, there was an error during the write
process. A section of the file may have been written, but if so
it is incomplete. It is possible that the disk is full or that
the drive is write-protected. Correct the problem and try again.
$ S44 File must begin with /*AVC*/
The first line of the story must begin with the seven characters
"/*AVC*/", starting in the first position. Correct the file and
try again.
$ S45 Text file is empty
A file of the name indicated exists on the disk, but there is
either nothing in it or nothing apart from the "/*AVC*/" line.
Check the name you are using and the contents of the file.
$ S46 Not enough memory to import file
There is not enough memory available to read the file.
$ S47 Text file can now be pasted
The file you indicated has been brought into the copy buffer, as
if you had copied the lines from another story. Paste the lines
at the appropriate spot.
$ S48 Break points cleared
Breakpoint markings have been cleared from all lines in the story.
$ S49 Story has no break points
You selected the function to clear break point markings, but there
were none in the story. No change has been made.
$ S99 INTERNAL: downlevel story
The story was created by a version of Story Editor that is now
incompatible with the current version and is unusable. The story
should be deleted.
$ T01 Error initializing AVA interpreter
There is not enough memory for the interpreter to start.
$ T02 Error initializing AVA interpreter
There is not enough memory for the interpreter to start.
$ T03 Unable to load story file
Either the story could not be found, or there is insufficient memory
to load it.
If you are trying to run Help, the full Help system is not installed.
You can add Help to your AVC system by running the install procedure
from your original AVC diskettes.
$ T04 Error finding path or story name
The story cannot be located. Check the directory name and the
story name.
$ T05 Story has run time errors
The story has encountered an error condition and has stopped as a
result. The most common causes are:
- picture, audio, or called story not found
- expression used with IF which did not evaluate to 0 or 1
- variable used with DO which did not evaluate to a number
- unmatched DO/END pairs
- attempt to divide by zero, or arithmetic overflow
These are the most common problems, but the particular error in
this case may be something different. Use Story Editor to run the
story and isolate the problem.
$ T06 Internal buffer space exceeded
The story has become complex enough at this point to have overrun
the interpreter's internal memory buffers. All of the following
contribute to complexity:
- number of IF-THEN-ELSE statements being evaluated
- number of TELL statements executed to this point
- number of nested CALLs, including built-in functions
- number of active DO loops using counters
- number of terms in active arithmetic or logical expressions,
and extent of expression nesting with parentheses
- length of evaluated arguments passed to procedures
Revise the story to make it simpler.
$ T07 Not enough memory
If you are running the story in DOS, the most likely problem is
that it has too great a demand on main memory space. The main
contributors to memory demand are:
- calls from large stories to other large stories
- screens with a large number of triggers and text fields all
shown at the same time
- lengthy audio
- large numbers of variables with long names and lengthy values
If your story has any of these conditions, restructure it to
cut its size (this should also improve its performance).
If this is not the problem, your system may have insufficient
free main memory or expanded memory, or (in OS/2) there may not
be enough disk space for the system's swap file (you need 512K
free space on the swap file's drive).
$ Y01 Unable to write the profile
The profile cannot be written. There is a problem with the disk or
diskette drive. Correct the problem and try again. You may have to
delete the file if it was partially written.
$ Y02 Error or EOF while reading profile
The profile cannot be read. Either there is a problem with the disk
or diskette drive or the file's data has been damaged. Correct the
problem and try again.
$ Y03 No suitable video adapter detected
The configurator did not find an acceptable video adapter for AVC
operation. Verify your configuration and try again.
$ Y04 Wrong version of profile
The data in the profile file is corrupted. To correct the problem,
delete the profile file and create it again.
$ Y50 Mouse sensitivity out of range 1,10
The value entered for the mouse sensitivity parameter is not within
the valid range of 1 through 10. Correct the error and try again.
$ Y51 Mouse click time out of range 1,10
The value entered for the mouse click time parameter is not within
the valid range of 1 through 10. Correct the error and try again.
$ Y52 Unrecognized video adapter type
You have entered an invalid video adapter type. Correct the error
and try again.
$ Y53 Parameter value out of range
The value entered for a configuration parameter is not within the valid
range. Correct the error and try again.
$ Y99 INTERNAL: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
An internal error has occurred. Make note of the circumstances and
report the error to IBM.
$ Z05 AVC requires IOPL=YES in the CONFIG.SYS
Your CONFIG.SYS file requires the statement IOPL=YES. Change the
file and reboot.
$ Z06 No LIM available - cannot load module
To run in DOS, your system requires expanded memory.
$ Z07 No LIM space available - cannot load module
Your system does not have enough expanded memory.
$ Z08 Not enough memory to run AVC
In DOS, you need 512K (524,288 bytes) free memory to run AVC and
possibly as much as 464K (475,136 bytes) to run TELL.
The memory requirements for TELL depend on whether the system has
an audio card and whether it is set up for host communications: i.e.,
has SRPI installed. The basic requirement is 416K (425,984). Audio
needs an additional 36K and SRPI 12K.
Use CHKDSK to find out how much free memory you have. If you are
below the requirement, you should cut down on the resident programs
in use by changing CONFIG.SYS to not load a device driver. Some
programs, such as PRINT, become resident the first time you run
them, and you may need to reboot to eliminate such a program.
The AVC cannot be run in the DOS compatibility box. If this is the
problem, switch over to OS/2 and run from there.
For OS/2 systems running SuperVGA, there is an incompatability
between the BVHSVGA driver and AVC. In order to run AVC, edit the
CONFIG.SYS and change 'SET VIO_VGA=(BVHVGA,BVHSVGA)' to
'SET VIO_VGA=(BVHVGA)'.
$ Z10 Error searching path for AVC.EXE
The AVC cannot determine the directory to load its code from. Your
CONFIG.SYS file (or AUTOEXEC.BAT, if in DOS) needs a PATH= statement
which includes the SYSTEM.!AV directory. The directory itself must
be located off the root of a drive, not in a subdirectory. Correct or
add the PATH= statement and reboot.
$ Z11 Only 1 AVC Session allowed
The system is already running under a different session. Switch back
to that session and continue from there.
$ Z12 Not enough disk space to run AVC
In DOS, the AVC uses disk work space to enable you to switch from
one editor to another in the same session. Each different editor you
use will require about 150,000 bytes of work space.
Check the amount of free disk space on the drive with your user library
and delete files as necessary.
$ Z13 Not enough LIM memory to run AVC
In order to run the AVC, you need 2 megabytes of available expanded
memory.
Your CONFIG.SYS file has a DEVICE statement for the expanded
memory manager. Check that it specifies sufficient memory.
It may be that your expanded memory card is defective. If this is
the case, a warning message will appear on the screen when you boot
the system.
If you have run some other program before running the AVC, it is
possible that the program acquired expanded memory and did not
release it when it ended.
$ Z14 Invalid user library name
The parameter typed with the AVC command must indicate the name
of a user library and may need to include path information if your
current directory is not the root.
If your user name is USER, for example, there must be a root sub-
directory named USER.!AL. This directory is your "library".
If your current directory is not the root or is on a different drive
from your library, you need to provide path information . . . for
example, AVC \USER or AVC C:\USER.
$ Z15 Program file missing for requested feature
One of the program code files is missing from the SYSTEM.!AV
directory. Reinstall the AVC. The reinstallation will add the
missing file.
$ Z16 Not enough memory for feature
There is not enough memory to start the process you selected.
Either your configuration prevents memory swapping or the drive
with the swap file doesn't have enough free space.
First, check your CONFIG.SYS file to make sure it permits swapping
and that SWAPPATH= provides adequate free space. If not, change
CONFIG.SYS and reboot.
Check the amount of free space on the swap file drive before
starting the AVC. You will need a minimum of 2,200,000 bytes
free to be able to operate at all and should have at least twice
that amount to avoid periodic "out of memory" conditions.
