Anyone else getting an "SQL error" message when trying to reply to a PM?
What does it mean?

SQL is Structured Query Language, which is used to access or extract information from a relational database (RDBMS). I think this is something Bob will need to look at.

You can get an SQL error if you try to post or reply to any message with an unrecognised emoticon.

This can happen if you use a phone or tablet to generate the icon rather than selecting one using the forum software.

It happens because the forum software can't find the icon which is stored on the phone.

Many thanks for the explanation.
