 <h2>ERROR MESSAGES</h2>
 
-An error message such as:
+<i>"ERROR: DBMI-DBF driver error:
+SQL parser error: syntax error, unexpected DESC, expecting NAME processing 'DESC'"</i><br>
 
-<div class="code"><pre>
-DBMI-DBF driver error:
-SQL parser error: syntax error, unexpected DESC, expecting NAME processing 'DESC'
-</pre></div>
-
 indicates that a column name corresponds to a reserved SQL word (here: 'DESC').
 A different column name should be used. The <em>cnames</em> parameter can be used
 to assign different column names on the fly.
 
+<p>
+<i>"ERROR: Projection of dataset does not appear to match the current location."</i><br>
+
+You need to create a location whose projection matches the data you
+wish to import. Try using <em>g.proj</em> with the <em>-c</em> flag and the
+<em>location=</em> and <em>georef=</em> options to create a new location based 
+upon the projection information in the file. You should then be able to import the
+file into that location with <em>v.in.ogr</em>. If desired, you can then re-project
+it to another location with <em>v.proj</em>.
