Run- Time Error Messages

Run-Time errors are often hard to see.  They appear a white text somewhere on your screen below wherever the cursor was positioned at the time of the error.  

They look a lot like I/O Error messages except that the first line says Run-time Error xx ,   PC=nnnn 

They are usually generated because of a math error, a memory error or because some part of the program that was expected to be there was not.
