Hiya Mark...

HTH... You might try thread #600666.... there was a good discussion on ERROR trapping/handling there...

BTW: I used to live in Livermore... :-)

However, the ON ERROR's in the prg get ignored. I would really like a way to override the errors being passed up to the error event, and trap them right there.
