If you need to check what kind of error you got, you can rite your own erro r handler in the same .PRG file.

*myprog.prg
FUNCTION WhatEver
LOCAL cOldError
cOldError = ON("ERROR")
ON ERROR DO ErrorHandler WITH ERROR(),LINENO(),MESSAGE()
* your code here
ON ERROR &cOldError
RETURN

FUNCTION ErrorHandler
LPARAMETERS nError, nLine, cMessage
* do what ever you need to do here based on the error


FUNCTION OthersAsNeeded

*end of myprog.prg


You can have as many functions you need to have "local" to your own .PRG as part of the .PRG. They will be available any time tha "main" function of your .PRG is called.
