For Lauricella's hypergeometric function F(n)D of n variables, we prove two formulas exhibiting its behaviour near the boundaries of the n-dimensional region of convergence of the multiple series defining it. Each of these results can be applied to deduce the corresponding properties of several simpler hypergeometric functions of one, two, and more variables.
