Data Access Error

[Pickering, John (NORBORD)]

The 8.19cx version seems to use "data access error" far too often. I suspect
this is part of the move to "common source code" and that PH simply can't be
bothered deciphering Image errors and instead just produces a generic
message for any sort of error. I've seen this message for security reasons,
for non-existent files, for database errors and a couple of other cases
where earlier versions gave more useful information. Kind of leaves you
scratching your head and wondering.

I do not consider this aspect of version 8.19 an improvement :-(
