SYMPTOM(s):

CAUSE:
This is expected behavior. Functions are not required to raise an error condition when they cannot return the requested value. They may generate a numbered error message that explains why the requested value could not be returned.
FIX:
To determine programmatically whether a function was able to perform the task that was requested, check ERROR-STATUS:NUM-MESSAGES to see if a message was generated.
