Report an error in the form “text: message” where text is a specified character string and message is the text associated with error number status.

CALL DAT_ERTXT( TEXT, STATUS )

TEXT = CHARACTER $\ast$ ( $\ast$ ) (Given)

STATUS = INTEGER (Given)

This routine is obsolete as HDS now reports its own errors. Any additional error reports from applications should be made using the ERR_ routines (SUN/104). Error reports from system code should use the EMS_ routines (SSN/4).
