Try/catch is for ERRORS, not for regular conditions. You -may- use the ERROR command to raise fake errors, but that's not what try/catch is meant for. But it fits your purpose, it's yur choice.

>Not sure. I'm going to be testing for a number of conditions, whenever m.MyVariable = .T. then I want to immediately kickout. If this isn't a good application of TRY/CATCH, then what is? I'm just trying to use functionality that's available and this sounded like a good fit.

>>>In the TRY block I want to test for certain conditions, if those conditions prove false, then I want to go to the CATCH block and do some other stuff. I think I should use THROW, but I can't figure out how to do it. I'm new to using the TRY/CATCH stuff.
