 ===== Description =====
-The function ''metaError()'' converts a database-specific error number into a portable number. This is done by querying the driver error-handling function and converting the error.
+The function ''metaErrorMsg()'' converts a portable error number, provided by [[reference:metaerror|metaError()]] into a portable, language specific message
-If the database does not support the function then the value returned is always 0.
-If no parameter is provided, the function returns the portable error number from the last error.
