After looking at the SetErrorMode() API call in The WIN32 API bible and in the .hlp file I am still a little unsure just where do we get the 0 and the 1 from. Am I staring right at it? Possibly overlooking the obvious. I see the 'SEM_FAILCRITICALERRORS' type parameters and I dont know how to acces that or how that is equivelent to a 1 or 0.
Yep, Forest & Trees... (s) Who cares how you get 0 or 1 just use them! You can spend hours looking in MS Constant files. Since it is your code in a VFP program I do not think being 100% MS syntatically correct is a promary concern (g). Yes I agree that following the syntax as close as possible is wise. And yes sometimes I go crazy too trying to figure out where to find that stuff. Draw the line when it comes to how much time it will take! (s)
