[AccessD] Error Code Generator

I didn't write it, but it raises a question that I have wondered about for a while. Why is it better to embed the error routine in the particular proc or func than to write one global error handler and pass it the text and perhaps the proc/func name, so there's only one error handler in the whole app? I never did understand this. Can anyone provide some insight?

I believe someone on the list created an error generator. I believe it might be JC? Anyway I have been using it a lot for code examples and just to be politically correct want the owner to know. Example below
 
 
Function CopytoWss()
On Error GoTo Err_CopytoWss
    DoCmd.SelectObject acTable, "Contacts"
    DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdExportSharePointList
Exit_CopytoWss:
Exit Function
Err_CopytoWss:
        MsgBox Err.Description, , "Error in Function CopytoWss"
        Resume Exit_CopytoWss
    Resume 0    '.FOR TROUBLESHOOTING
End Function
