I could do the move last but that would mean a bit of On Error GoTo, check for the right error code, Resume Label:, etc. I've used error traps before to trap errors which are deliberately generated, but as an old fashioned programmer it always rubbed me the wrong way. Nothing wrong with it, of course, just like to write programs that don't create errors.
