>Sounds like you're having the same problem addressed in a previous thread: Do you have an explicit 'return FILE_ERRORHANDLED'? If not, it should return the .T. you're seeing.

This is framework code (not mine). The line reads: RETURN FILE_ERRORHANDLED, which, for some reason, keeps returning a .T. instead of the -6 that it should. Just to test it, I replaced the line to read:

lnRetVal = FILE_ERRORHANDLED
RETURN lnRetVal

This also returned a .T., although lnRetVal was definitely set to .T. - I traced through it in the debugger. This isn't the normal .T. that gets returned by default from VFP (when you don't explicitly return anything).


Hmm. At this point my thought turns to the less obvious. Check to be sure you are including the proper file, and that FILE_ERRORHANDLED hasn't been redefined.
