reserved error occured

[Ronny Sigo]

Hello all,
While develloping my application, at a certain point, a button which
normally opens a form suddenly doesn't do so anymore. Instead I get a
message which says:
"A reserved error occured (-1517) There is no message available for this
error" (Or at least something like this - cause I have the Dutch version)
It came out of the blue, cause I did not change anything on the button nor
the form which it's supposed to open.
I haven't got the faintest idea what this is ... can anybody help me with
this?
Many thanks

Ronny

This error will occur if you change the design of a table, but don't follow
through with a compact. If your database is split, it is a good idea to
compact the backend after a design change, and also refresh the links in the
frontend and compact it.
