ARERR [43] Unable to retrieve the menu for character field ''field name''.

A $MENU$ pattern is specified for a field with a character menu, and the server is encountering an error while building the menu to verify the value against. The error can be due to one of the following reasons:

• The menu is built from a search against a form on a different server. The server restricts access locally to the same server process for performance and consistency reasons. You cannot use a $MENU$ pattern verification for a remote search.
  
• The menu is built from a search against a local form, but the search is encountering an error during retrieval.
  
• The menu is built from a file, and the file cannot be found.
  
• The menu is built using a direct SQL command against another server. The server restricts access locally to the same server process for performance and consistency reasons. You cannot use a $MENU$ pattern verification for a remote SQL command.
  
• The menu is built using direct SQL against a local database, but the command is encountering an error during retrieval.
