Status Conventions

All the NBS routines useADAM modified status conventions in that they will do nothing if status is notNBS__OK (0) on entry. They can all optionally be called as functions, in which case the function value is the same as the returned status value. In all cases where an NBS routine is the source of the error, an error report will be made using the error and message reporting service.
