System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Note: Changes made in the work area that are then transferred by either
the A/M or Del button overwrite existing entries in list &V2&.
If you want to change an existing entry in the list, you can:
Change it directly in the list
Select (double-click) the entry, transfer it to the work area and change
it there
This prevents existing entries being changed by accident.
