If money were no object, it would be easy to decide which advertising medium to go with. All of them! Unfortunately, the reality is that even with a hefty advertising budget, it is a challenge to create memorable
advertising.
So unless you have truckloads of money to spend, you should try one medium at a time. What works for one product or service may not work for the next. There are so many different variables that can affect the results of an advertising campaign—from ad copy
to the weather. You will simply have to test the effectiveness of your message in each medium to find the best vehicle for promoting your product. Advertising is an art, not a science!

Understanding Error Messages
Import/Export Errors
Program File Errors Understanding Error Messages
In last month's newsletter we introduced you to the concept of error messages.
Error messages identify conditions that prevent the program from proceeding. In most cases error messages start with a phrase (a category) such as "System error" or "Incorrect procedure", followed by a sentence that
describes the problem more specifically. In some cases, suggestions for action to take are included in the dialog box.
The following are some additional errors you may encounter, along with the recommended workarounds.
Import/Export Error
Problem: The program has detected a problem and cannot proceed with importing or exporting the data.
Solution: Decide which error condition applies to your situation. Write down each error message you receive so that you have a complete list of the corrections you need to make in the import or export file.
A message indicating that the program cannot access, find, initialize, create or open a file, or that the file does not exist or is not a template, or that a file I/O error has occurred, means that the file is not available for use.
- If you are on a network, ask your systems administrator whether you have the correct access rights to the file.
- Check that you have specified the correct path (drive and directory), and filename.
- If you are exporting, go to the system prompt and make sure the file is not a read-only file. If it is, follow the instructions in your operating system manual to remove the designation.
- If you are exporting, check the available file space, delete or move the unneeded files.
- Try to import or export the data again.
- If the message recurs, leave ACCPAC and Windows, reset your computer by pressing the CTRL, ALT and DEL keys simultaneously, then retry the import or export.
File Layout or contents
A message indicating that the file contains incorrect field or record types, or that data cannot be converted, means that the file layout is not correct, the fields are improperly defined, or the wrong fields have been selected.
- If you are importing and the import file contains errors, go to the program where you created the import file, then correct the errors. After you've made the corrections, retry the import. Be sure the import file contains all the
fields required by the importing function you are trying to use, and that the correct file layout is being used. Check each piece of data to be sure it is formatted and entered as required by the file format you are using. Make sure
the record type is correct. For more information read Chapter 12, "Importing and Exporting Data," in this guide.
- If you are importing and the wrong fields are selected for import reselect the fields and then retry the import.
- If you are exporting and the data cannot be converted, the file is damaged. Follow the instructions for "Damaged Data" (refer A-2 in your ACCPAC Systems Manager manual).
7. |
A message indicating that the file does not have the selected format, has too many fields or records, has an unexpected forma, has too many fields or records, has an unexpected end of file or has an invalid field title
means that the file format you selected is incorrect. To correct this.
- Select the correct format for the file.
- Try again to import the data.
|
Program File Error
Problem: Program files are missing, damaged, incompatible or renamed.
Solution:
Network User: If you are on a network, the message can also mean you do not have access rights. Ask your systems administrator whether you should follow these instructions and whether you have the correct access
rights.
Write down the message in case you need to consult a technician. - Leave ACCPAC and Windows, then restart and try the task again. If the message does not recur, you likely have solved the problem by restarting. Check your data integrity for errors
before resuming. For information on "Checking Data Integrity" see chapter 11 of the Systems Manager Guide.
If the message reappears or the integrity check reports errors, contact our support department.
