Hello,
I aggree with Mr. Greenberg, Mathematica writes the error messages to the
end of the program code and gives no reference to the location of the error
in the program.
That may make the task of the programmers much more difficult than
necessary.
Another solution could be, that Mathematica writes the error message
directly behind the command, that causes the error. I think, this could be
accomplished very easily.
