Run time errors
 *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX) 

  BASIC returns run-time error messages if an error occurs while a program
  is  executing.  BASIC diagnoses the error and indicates the program line
  that generated the error.  Warning error messages indicate that an error
  has occurred, but program execution continues.  In some cases, VAX BASIC
  re-prompts for more information or correct data.  In other cases,  BASIC
  performs  the  specified operation, but the results are not as expected.
  Fatal error messages indicate that the program  has  aborted.   You  can
  recover  from  most fatal errors by including error-handling routines in
  your program.  Certain errors, however, are not  recoverable  even  when
  error-handlers  are  used.  In the description of these errors, they are
  designated as not trappable.  You do not need error-handling routines to
  trap errors that generate warning messages.
