34: SYNTAX ERROR (no file given)
The file name was left out of a command or the DOS does not recognize it as such.
Typically, a colon (:) has been left out of the command.
39: SYNTAX ERROR (invalid command)
This error may result if the command sent to command channel (secondary address
15) is unrecognizable by the DOS.
50: RECORD NOT PRESENT
Result of disk reading past the last record through INPUT#, or GET# commands. This
message will also occur after positioning to a record beyond end of file in a relative
file. If the intent is to expand the file by adding the new record (with a PRINT# com-
mand), the error message may be ignored. INPUT or GET should not be attempted
after this error is detected without first repositioning.
51: OVERFLOW IN RECORD
PRINT# statement exceeds record boundary. Information is truncated. Since the car-
riage return which is sent as a record terminator is counted in the record size, this
message will occur if the total characters in the record (including the final carriage
return) exceeds the defined size.
52: FILE TOO LARGE
Record position within a relative file indicates that disk overflow will result.
60: WRITE FILE OPEN
This message is generated when a write file that has not been closed is being opened for
reading.
61: FILE NOT OPEN
This message is generated when a file is being accessed that has not been opened in the
DOS. Sometimes, in this case, a message is not generated; the request is simply ignored.
62: FILE NOT FOUND
The requested file does not exist on the indicated drive.
63: FILE EXISTS
The filename of the file being created already exists on the diskette.
64: FILE TYPE MISMATCH
The file type does not match the file type in the directory entry for the requested file.
65: NO BLOCK
This message occurs in conjunction with the B-A command. It indicates that the block
to be allocated has been previously allocated. The parameters indicate the track and
sector available with the next highest number. If the parameters are zero (0), then all
blocks higher in number are in use.
66: ILLEGAL TRACK AND SECTOR
The DOS has attempted to access a track or sector which does not exist in the format
being used. This may indicate a problem reading the pointer to the next block.
67: ILLEGAL SYSTEM T OR S
This special error message indicates an illegal system track or sector.
