OK, valuing bravado over brains, I chose "Abort", and was able to
re-start VFI from the "File" menu. It ran, and reported "2 Potential
Problems Fixed". Clinging to hope, I followed Lee's recommendation and
ran VFI the second time with no other intermediate actions. At the
completion of the second VFI run, the report is "2 Potential Problems
Fixed". I'm running it a third time, but I kinda-sorta think I know
what I'm going to see ....

OH-OH -- this can't be good! Followed Lee's advice, got a very fast
error message, almost immediately upon choosing "Yes" to running VFI:

The error message says "Variable GCOPENPJCLOG is not found. 7471
FIXORIGTYPE2"

Abort, Retry, Ignore?


What do you suppose this is all about?

Okay, you ran Verify File Integrity (VFI) and got the message that
there were "2 potential problems fixed". Did you run VFI again
immediately. Try it and you should get a message that no problems were
found. Keep running VFI until you get this message.

The problems here are in the redundant areas of the data and indexing.
Mostly these are just plain administrative errors could cause display
errors in time.

Hope this helps -
