Gregg,

Thanks a lot for this notification. This particular form is based on a class which doesn't have code in Error method. (We will use our Error Handler instead). Anyway, it's important to know. Thanks.

The class' Error() method will run regardless. I just thought I'd mention it because you could get some suprising results.....
