ThinkTank Manual

Error Writing Menu to Disk!

Where It May Occur: UTILITIES/MENU

Possible Causes: ThinkTank had trouble recording your new SPECIALIST Command Menu on the THINKTANK PROGRAM DISK.

Suggested Solutions: The SPECIALIST options are stored on the THINKTANK PROGRAM DISK in a file called TANKOPTIONS.

Make sure the ThINKTANK PROGRAM DISK is properly inserted and try saving then again. If you run ThinkTank from a hard disk, make sure the TANKOPTIONS file is available to your system.

See the ‘Note on Disk Problems” at the end of this list.

Fully Expanded!

Where It May Occur: EXPAND

Possible Causes: You tried to expand a headline that had

already been expanded.

Suggested Solutions: There may actually be information hidden beneath the expanded subheadings of the bar cursor head- line. By default, the EXPAND command expands only one level

of subheadings. To expand more levels, set a command prefix before selecting EXPAND.

Internal Error

Where It May Occur: Rare

Possible Causes: The ThinkTank program itself has made an error. ThinkTank identifies the error with a number following the message. It’s possible that your disk is damaged, but you may also have found an obscure “bug” in the program.

Suggested Solutions: The most serious of these errors is “Internal Error "2” which indicates a damaged outline. Any further work with the outline is likely to do more damage. Do not add or delete text, but take the following steps to

protect your outline:
