>>It seems to use the power of CF more. It may be, but is it really what makes "good code"?
The first code is more intuitive , logical and it corresponds to the real situation. It explains more clearly the two situations that can be encountered. The second code leads to think that the second case is an error of the first, which is not true. And BTW, the first code could still be embeded inside a CFTRY to handle true errors, ... and use all the power of CF! ;-) -- _______________________________________ REUSE CODE!
