- Get hold of a copy of TRYMSG.COM: it goes through a SET MESSAGE/F$MESSAGE
- loop for all the message files in SYS$MESSAGE. The first copy of TRYMSG
- that I saw came from Douglas A. Gordon at DEC. I've enhanced the original
- and redistributed it at times, as have others...

- From SYS$COMMON:[SYSMSG]SYSMGTMSG.EXE;1...
-
- %X00A38012 is: %BACKUP-E-OPENOUT, error opening !AS as output
- %X00A38410 is: %BACKUP-W-ACCONFLICT, !AS is open for write by another user
-
- The other thing you might consider would be to add the line:
-
- $SET MESSAGE SYS$MESSAGE:SYSMGTMSG
-
- at the beginning of the command file that runs your BACKUP job. Then you'll
- get the full context of the messages (that is, the file name in question).
