Here's a key to the markup:

        [page-number]: serious technical mistake
        {page-number}: minor technical mistake
        <page-number>: important language/formatting problem
        (page-number): language change or minor formatting problem
        ?page-number?: reader question or request for clarification


CONFIRMED errors:

(401)  Part d of Solution 16-17 now reads:

	"...created on NESTED TABLE..."

Should read:

	"...created on the NESTED TABLE..."
