Recovering from Errors during a DELTA List Check


If you have selected one-element-at-a-time execution mode with the option of pausing at errors and any elements in the DELTA List encounter errors during the check processing, you will be presented with an Element Error pop-up window (the following figure). This pop-up window indicates the element that encountered the error and describes the error. The pop-up window provides the options of continuing DELTA List processing with the next element or canceling the Check of the DELTA List.
