PCC-00013: Unable to open include file "string" at line number in file string

Cause: The precompiler was unable to open the input file specified in the INCLUDE statement. Some possible causes follow: 

     The file name is misspelled. 

     The file does not exist. 

     The search path to the file is incorrect. 

     File access privileges are insufficient. 

     There is not enough disk space. 

     There are too many open files.

Action: Check that the file exists, that the search path to the file is correct, that sufficient privileges to access the file have been granted, and that it is not locked by another user. Also, check with the system manager to make sure there is enough disk space and that the limit for open files is set high enough.

PCC-00008: Invalid WHENEVER action at column number in line number of file string

Cause: At lease one of the following:

     One of the specified actions was spelled incorrectly. 

     The host language does not allow the action (STOP is illegal in Pro*Pascal programs).
