SYMPTOMS
An Advanced Program-to-Program Communications (APPC) application that is using the Host Integration Server 2000 (HIS 2000) End-User Client may receive the following error message:

Primary Return Code: 0001 (SV_PARAMETER_CHECK)

Secondary Return Code: 00000405 (SV_TABLE_ERROR)

This error typically occurs when the application is calling the Convert verb and using a SV_G char_set parameter.



CAUSE

This value should exist and should contain the path for the default type G conversion table.

Note The actual path to Comtblg.dat should match the path to where it exists on your End User Client system. You must add the registry entry manually only if you cannot apply Service Pack 1 to the Host Integration Server 2000 End User Client.
 * 1) Quit Registry Editor.
