Hi John Not to shortcut your clever thoughts and comments here, but it sounds like you may expect a flood of errors. As you are capable of writing robust code popping no messageboxes, my guess is that the only errors you'll ever meet will be at the transmitting (mail, fax, ftp) process where - on the other hand - all sorts of errors can arise and - worse yet - you can't even set up a test scenario that simulates all these errors; you just have to be prepared that what can fail sooner or later will fail. /gustav >>> jwcolby at colbyconsulting.com 05/06 8:39 pm >>> I am designing a system to create reports to be sent to a client automatically every evening. I did this before and had consistent issues with error handling, msgboxes in error handlers popping up and stopping the process etc. This time there will be no msgboxes, but errors must be reported thus I am trying to build a system that can be called from the error handler or where a message box would pop up. The system will log all such messages. Some thoughts in no particular order.
