Dbtable in wrong state for operation: %S_DBT.
Adaptive Server tracks the status of each open database using a memory structure called a dbtable, which contains state information such as the number of open transactions in the database, the number of open objects, keep counts that ensure proper use of each dbtable, and so on. Error 940 is raised when a database operation is attempted which is incompatible with the current state of its dbtable.
Error 940 is due to an internal Adaptive Server problem. It results in a stack trace and prevents further work in the server.
The error is raised with the following states:
