Does the following work for you????
ON ERROR DoSomePrg()
...
PROCEDURE DoSomePrg
   ON ERROR
   ?? CHR(7)
   RETRY
ENDPROC
bear in mind that after this executes you will have to manually reset the ON ERROR before resuming the program and you've examined the problem.


>Thanks. Unfortunately, there is still the problemn of what line I get parked on after whatever program is invoked by ON ERROR.
