hi,
            E can be used when you want raise an error, as soon as the value
is entered in the field. So you can used 'E' in ID routine or check fields
routine. ETEXT is used for validation error, where an error message might
depend on combinations of fields. So this can be used in validation routine.
The error message raised due to ETEXT will only be raised when u validate or
commit the record.

note: In browser both E & ETEXT will behave in same fashion, as the entire
record is send as a single ofs message. you can find this difference only in
classic.


Regards,
Chandrasekar
