How To Fix 37887 - Internal error while exchanging data. Exit program?

37887 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: 37 - Screen Painter

• Message number: 887

• Message text: Internal error while exchanging data. Exit program?

What causes this issue?

An internal error occurred in the layout editor when trying to exchange
data with the application server. The layout editor may have requested
a program service that the Screen Painter transaction on the
application server could not provide.

System Response

The system assumes that the data cannot be transferred correctly and
that the graphical layout editor contains invalid data. It therefore
asks you whether you want to exit the editor program.

How to fix this error?

If you choose "Yes", the program ends. Control returns to the Screen
Painter transaction on the application server and the alphanumeric
Screen Painter is started. Any changes you made since you last saved
the screen are lost. If you reset the graphical layout editor by
choosing "Settings -> Graph. Screen Painter", the system starts the
graphical editor again the next time you start the graphical Screen
Painter.
If you choose "No", you can carry on working with the graphical layout
editor and try other operations (such as "Cancel") to return control to
the Screen Painter transaction. If this fails, you should choose "Yes"
to exit the program.
