Abstract
Hermitian self-dual quaternary codes exist for all even lengths. The smallest length for which the maximum possible minimum distance of such codes is undetermined is 26; it is then either 8 or 10. By exhaustive computer search this case is settled; it is shown that minimum distance 10 is impossible for these parameters.
