Access Client Solution - Data Transfer Request - Detailed error message

When a data transfer request is rejected by an Exit Point security program, a dialog is presented which only states, "The function did not complete successfully."

I'm requesting information to help determine why the function did not complete--specifically, I would like message stating something like "Exit point denied request." Even more detailed information in the service logs would be helpful.


Use Case:

When a data transfer is denied because of the response from an exit point program, provide text to indicate this.
The exact text could vary, but the idea is to let a user (and specifically their support people) know that a security exit point denied the request. Then if the request is actually appropriate, action can be taken to allow the request.

    Updates have been made to provide additional details when an error occurs. A specific message id may be used for more than one type of error, but the specific message details will help identify the specific error.
