Renoir,
No problem. Would be a handy function if it worked that way ;-)

Way back I remember we turned off the default on error routine and create another error routine that would return I believe false but this was way back in pre Visual day. So I really not sure if this process will still work and more importantly even if it does I don't seem to have the code. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
