I apologize. Elsewhere it was stated that they were to be kept to a "minimum". If they are out entirely, by all means, keep it that way. I am not a fan of Exceptions myself. Integrating with a badly-written exception-based library is even worse than integrating with a badly-written error-messaging library. If the library is well-written, either works equally well. :-) -- Some people ask for gifts here.
