Locating Message Documentation

Oracle Server

These messages are generated by the Oracle Server when running any Oracle program. This manual documents messages that are common across Oracle products and tools.

Product Specific

These messages are specific to one product and are documented in manuals for that product. For example, if you work on a Macintosh and use SQL*Net, you would need to refer to the messages contained in the SQL*Net for Macintosh Manual.

Operating System-Specific

These messages are specific to one operating system. A range of message code numbers is reserved for each operating system. For example, the range 7500 - 7999 is for DEC VAX/VMS messages; these messages are listed in the appropriate operating system-specific documentation.

The prefix of the message indicates where to find information about the message. For example, some messages in this manual have the prefix "ORA". If you encounter a message without a prefix, first check the manuals for the product you are using, then check this manual.
