I think I'm not being clear. Maybe because I'm rather confused by all this myself. :)

Anyway, I don't want to return false, I want to return my result object. That part I can handle. The part I am having trouble with is letting the code that caused the error know an error has occured. The old way I would have done it is like this:

PUBLIC glWasError
ON ERROR glWasError = .T.
USE tablename
ON ERROR
IF glWasError
  *-- Use AERROR to get the info and then deal with it
ENDIF

With doing things the OOP way, I don't have the ON ERROR anymore. Instead, if the USE fails, it goes to the error method.

So I have:

USE tablename
IF ?????  && An error occurred
  loResult.lSucceded = .F.
  loResult.cError = ???????
ELSE
  loResult.lSucceded = .T.
ENDIF

RETURN loResult

What I don't know is how to make the IF statement know there was an error and what that error is.

Thanks,

Michelle
