Re: HP Basic on Open VMS on VAX and Alpha

... but you also need to know the radix (i.e. the actual print format statement used):

$ exit %x194
%SYSTEM-F-LKWSETFUL, locked portion of working set is full

This would be the correct message code, if the number is to be interpreted in HEX (hex numbers would usually be shown with leading zeroes, but you never know, if the message is coming from an application)

Re: HP Basic on Open VMS on VAX and Alpha

I really don't do much with BASIC, but a
little looking at the documentation on the
HP Web site (HP BASIC for OpenVMS \ User
Manual -- Appendix B \ Run-Time Messages)
revealed this:

NOTBASIC, Not a BASIC error (ERR=194)
Explanation: The error is not a HP BASIC error and is not mapped to an alternative HP BASIC error message.
User Action: Use RMSSTATUS or VMSSTATUS to access the text of the error message.

The DCL "EXIT " method might
work. Dare one ask what the VMSSTATUS and/or
RMSSTATUS values might be?

This link is a few years old, but should be worth a read as it focuses on basic.
