The nature of table design and testing is likely to produce occasional table definition errors. If Relativity encounters these
types of errors, they will be reported in the Status pane. This error process may also be triggered by file and/or table definition
errors that interfere with Relativity's ability to correctly create an adequate table structure.
If the file and table definitions do not describe the data actually in the COBOL data file correctly, the table preview may
display rows that have no data values in the grid cells. The following is a partial list of some typical situations where
this might occur:
- Nonnumeric data in an area described as numeric. The solution for this might involve defining or editing a record type filter
to prevent incorrect physical records from generating rows. Otherwise, the fault might be in the actual data description.
- A transform (typically a date transform) that is attempting to transform invalid data.
