Description for a given status array or error number

• A positive status error indicates a status condition which could happen during normal usage.
• A negative status error indicates a problem such as bad arguments to an Image statement.
• Status codes in the range -900 .. -700 indicate a fatal problem. In this case the tenth status element provides additional information.

The DBEXPLAIN$ function can be used to translate a status value to a message string:

DBEXPLAIN$(Status Array)

Decode status array into message

DBEXPLAIN$(Numeric Value)

Decode first status element into message
