Thanks Andy

I have resolved this problem now.

It turned out that the form that called the form I was working on had an empty error method.

So even though my form had perfectly good error method (set to default) it was passing all errors back to the calling forms error method.

Since the calling forms error method only contained a parameter statement and nothing else, then nothing happened.

I am very releived to have sorted it because this problem was driving me nuts.

Imagine trying to debug with no error handler!!

I am surprise that the debugger did not show that the previous forms error method was executing though. If it had I would have resolved this problem much sooner.

Thanks for your help.
