SUMMARY
ASK and SET fields are not result fields, so if an invalid bookmark name or
some other error causes the field to be improperly evaluated, the field
will not display an error.
MORE INFORMATION
Errors are normally displayed as the last results of the field; however,
because no result is displayed, no indication of the error is given.
An error can usually be detected in the field that uses the bookmark name
that is defined in the SET or ASK statement. If the ASK or SET field has an
error, the result field that references the bookmark will indicate that the
bookmark is not defined.
