ASP Connection String Errors

[Guest_imported]

I need a bullet-proof way of determining errors in ASP 2.0 using VBScript. I know how to check the connection.errors object, but it seems like On Error Resume Next doesn't work in VBScript even though all documentation I look at says it does.

I'm trying to intentionally break my connection string by providing a bad password, but it still spits out the hideous ASP error message.

Can anyone tell me how to override it?

Thanks.
