MZ Tools has a pretty nice error handler insertion feature. The handler is customizable. Works in all versions of Access from 2000 on.

Unfortunately I am not a VB kind of guy. I "wrote" the original but it was in Access. I don't event own VB (non .NET version anyway). You might beg and plead with Drew Wutka. He is very handy with VB and loves a challenge. It would also give him a chance to get up to his elbows in my old code and moan about it. I know Seth moaned a bit. <grin> John W.

A pitty. I think I'm going to try using you're error handler and some copy/paste/replace stuff...or copy it into a textfile and write a litte prog to do the replacing. Thanks anyway. Sander PS: A couple of weeks back I saw my first MS-Access 2.0 app from 1995 or so....oi, PS1 was not completely applicable but....although normalization was correct and it still works like a charm :-) "John W.

The error handler wizard is in VB and is under the care of Seth Galitzer. This sounds like a very custom mod which you would probably have to make. John W.

We use this in all (500+) applications. I don't won't to break the line of work. Problem is we enherited a HUGE Access app (250+ tables, 300+ forms, 7(!?!) modules) So we've got the following line in all our error handling: Call GenErr("Switchdatabase.Form_Startscherm", "Form_Load") TIA Sander PS1: according to the programmer of this beast: - 'normalization'? What's that, a snack? - a function is never used more then once - dim a, b, c as string creates 3 strings.... - dim blnError as String blnError = "0" blnError = "1" blnError = "incorrect" aaahhhhrg.....
