code Snippets
1

If you don’t like what ERROR() returns for a given message,
Then you can change what it returns.
Note: LOCALE call will only alter future errors, it won’t alter the current one.

You can also use a .ENV file to alter many LOCALE() settings all at once.

  MAP
    ReplaceErrMessage(LONG xMsgCode, STRING xNewMessage)
  END
Q  QUEUE
X     LONG
   END

  ReplaceErrMessage(30,'Did not find it')  ; DO ShowErr
  Q.X = 47; GET(Q, Q.X)                    ; DO ShowErr
