crontab message

In my continued efforts working with BB cron, I was attempting to see
any existing crontabs for my user account and had the following
message returned:
crontab: can't open 'username': No such file or directory
Granted I hadn't added a job for the user yet, but was checking to see
if any message could help determine my /etc/cron.d profile (from prior
email). I'm assuming this is supposed to say that there is no crontab
file for that user, is this correct? As soon as I did add a job for
the user, things worked normally. Perhaps a better error message
should be displayed, just my $0.02. :)
I am still having issues getting scripts to run that have been added
to /etc/cron.d though, so if anyone has any tips, let me know!
Thanks,
Dave
