Library of Error Messages

PeterAP

Hi,

 

Is there a library of error messages anywhere which gives you more definition around the error message and perhaps how to fix it?

 

I'm currently getting Error Message: "The File Exists. (80)" but have no ideal what that means or how to resolve it.

 

Any help would be appreciated!

 

Thanks,

 

Pete

Hi @PeterAP the number 80 is the unique tool ID which you can find with control F in Designer. Given your error message I would assume an output tool is set to create a new file. Hence the error message The file Exisits. Typically you want to change the dropdown in the Output tool to append or overwrite existing file.
