Error running Accessory


(Contents)(Previous)(Next)

You can get this error message in these ways:

· While trying to run an Accessory program from the Accessories Menu window.

· While trying to run another program from PC Access, such as the Windows Notepad.

· While trying to run a command in PC Access that requires PC Access to load a DLL (dynamic link library) file.

PC Access reports the filename of the Accessory, external program, or DLL that it cannot load and run. Check to make sure the file exists in your PC Access executable directory or in your DOS PATH. PC Access reports the error code it received from Windows when it tried to run the Accessory or other program. Look up the error code in the following table. If you are missing the file that PC Access cannot load and run (that is, you received an error code 2), follow the instructions for a missing file. If all else fails, follow the instructions for an Internal Error.
