We have experienced (almost never) OPEN errors that go to the ELSE clause such as...
open 'CM' to F.Cust else S = "CM" ; gosub 9950 Accordingly, new code here is written... open 'CM' to F.Cust else null I do not forsee much market demand in this arena... --Bill -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Jeff Fitzgerald Sent: Wednesday, June 06, 2007 3:14 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] [UV] Trap OPEN error for corrupted file In a BASIC program that OPENs a file, if the file being OPENed is damaged (e.g. a bad blink or a 32-bit file that has been truncated because it tried to extend past 2 GB) the OPEN fails and the program aborts. As far as I can tell, this type of error isn't trappable and doesn't take the ON ERROR or ELSE clauses; the program simply dies an ugly death. Anyone have any thoughts about trapping this type of error and keeping the program alive? Thanks!
