Message
types
and
organization.
Three
types

are
issued
to
you
from
the
user
interfaces
and
supporting
software:
v
Informational
messages
are
identified
by
the
letter
“I”
at
the
end
of
the
message
identifier.
They
provide
information
about
activities
as
they
take
place.
For
instance,
an

successfully
created.
No
user

is
necessary.
v

messages
are
identified
by
the
letter
“W”
at
the
end
of
the
message
identifier.
They
warn
that

have
consequences
that
you

not
anticipate.

normally
provide
the
opportunity
to
continue
an
activity
or
to
cancel
it.

are
identified
by
the
letter
“E”
at
the
