Subject: rt 6.4R: blanche
System name: fountain
Type and version: RTPC-ROMPC 6.4R
Display type: apa16
What were you trying to do?
"blanche -delete jik 6170-students". I wasn't on the list,
although I didn't realize it at the time.
What's wrong:
I got the following error message when executing that command:
blanche: Insufficient permission to perform requested database access while deleteing member jik from 6170-students
What should have happened:
I see at least four problems:
1. The error is wrong. I'm not on the list, so the error
should have been, "Not member of list" or some such thing.
It may not be feasible to fix this error, given the way
lists and accesses work, but I thought I should report it
anyway.
2. There should not be two spaces after the word "access",
there should only be one.
3. The word "deleteing" should be spelled "deleting".
4. The program should probably be smart enough to format the
error message on two lines, so that it doesn't look ugly.
