Q61588: QuickAssembler Error Messages Are Not in Manuals

Article: Q61588
Product(s): See article
Version(s): 2.01 2.51
Operating System(s): MS-DOS

Error messages for QuickAssembler versions 2.01 and 2.51 are available
only through online help. The "Microsoft QuickAssembler Programmer's
Guide" contains no error messages and the "Microsoft QuickC Toolkit"
manual contains only QuickC compiler, command- line, run-time, LINK,
LIB, NMAKE, and HELPMAKE errors.

To obtain information on QuickAssembler errors, use the online help in
the QuickC environment. The following are two different ways to do
this:

1. Type the error number in the environment and press the F1 key or
   press the right mouse button.

2. After compiling, when error messages are viewable in the ERROR
   window, either place the cursor on the error number and press the
   F1 key or press the right mouse button.

For example, if you want to obtain extra information on the Assembler
error "A2009: Symbol not defined," type A2009 from within the QuickC
environment and press the F1 key. A help window will pop up with
information concerning the A2009 error.
