APPENDIX C. PC208W ERROR MESSAGES
C.1 SPLIT ERROR MESSAGES:
Parameter following ";" must be an integer.
Check the Time Series functions where an
output interval has been assigned.
Invalid range specified inside [], or
expression buffer overflow.
On the Select condition line you should check
that the range specified has two periods (..) or
that only digits are used as delimiters. Also,
check for a missing right or left bracket.
Input file does not exist or is not a data file,
or has the same name as the output file.
Check the data file to see that it is valid.
Parameter file is too big.
You have exceeded the maximum parameter
file size of 4700 bytes.
Illegal value for time.
In the Start parameter with the Time Sync
option SPLIT did not recognize the time option.
Check that the time is specified properly
(day:hrmn:sec). Refer to the SPLIT section for
proper syntax.
Illegal array element # specified.
You have specified an element number that
does not exist. Most commonly, you forgot to
put a "." in a fixed value so SPLIT thinks it is an
element number.
Value inside [] missing or illegal.
Check the Start, Stop, and Copy syntax to verify
that you have not missed a value or entered a
value that is not valid.
Too many "and" conditions in expression.
There is a maximum of three elements that can
be connected with “and” statements.
Too many "or" conditions in expression.
There is a maximum of six elements that can be
connected with “or” statements.

253 characters maximum.
More than 8 files specified.
Check that no more than 8 Input files have been
specified. Check your syntax for a filename.
Remember, SPLIT will add .DAT to a filename if
a "." is not included.
"." without a number.
Check the Select Line for a "." that is not
associated with a fixed value.
Illegal character in expression.
Check the last line that you were editing. SPLIT
would not take some character. Experiment to
see what it does not like.
"(" without ")".
Check your parentheses. You must have the
same number of left parentheses as you do
right parentheses.
Function without "(".
Check all Math, Time Series, and Special
functions for a missing left parenthesis.
Function without ")".
Check all Math, Time Series, and Special
functions for a missing right parenthesis.

In the SELECT line check that left and right
brackets have been included. Also, verify that
two periods (..) have been included. Only digits
can be used for the beginning and ending
numbers.
Element value not in range 1..254.
SPLIT cannot work on more than 254 elements
at a time. Also, one element in the Select
option cannot exceed the buffer size for an
element. Try shortening the length of the
expression between commas.
