# Using the Problems Window

If an element in the project (such as a descriptor or mapping) contains an error or some deficiency (sometimes called neediness), the TopLink Workbench displays a caution icon (represented by a yellow triangle with a black exclamation point in the middle) to the left of the deficient element in the Navigator (see "Using the Navigator") and displays a message in the Problems window as Figure: Sample Deficient Mapping shows.

If you select the error, then TopLink Workbench displays the complete error message in the Problems window. TopLink Workbench Error Reference contains detailed information on each error message.

Sample Deficient Mapping

Description of "Sample Deficient Mapping"

Double-click any error message in the Problems window to automatically highlight the specific node in the Navigator. To display or hide the Problems window, select Window > Show Problems from the menu.

You can also create a status report (see "Generating the Project Status Report") that includes all errors in a selected project.
