>I don't mean to be a pain about this, but that means that for all of my 40+ forms I need to duplicate the code "on error goto errhandler" and then create a errhandler:..... subsection within my load proc for every form? Isn't there an easier way or am I missing your point?

Error handler is somewhat procedure specific. For example, if you have some recordsets open then error handler should close them.
Just my 2 cents.
