Error Codes for FileSystemObject

[Karl Blessing]

when using CopyFile, or CreateFolder, they dont return error code, instead they raise them, which makes it kind of hard for me to trap the exact line the error happens on, I want to make it so I can test and see if it was sucessful or not, I loop through a collection of Script commands, and if the command wasnt sucessfull I want to assign the Failed property to true, but If I do an On erorr goto whatever, I never know what line had the error, and if I did an On Error Resume Next?, does that clear the err? <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href=

Have you tried multiple on error gotos? <p>Steve<br><a href=mailto:tribesaddict@swbell.net>tribesaddict@swbell.net</a><br><a href= > </a><br>

I havent tried multiple error thing, but what would be beneficial, if I knew the Error # for certain error returns, that those commands would generate, that way I can at least do a resume next, but check the err.number <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href=

You can get the error numbers from err object.&nbsp;&nbsp;Set a break point in the error handler, then when it breaks from an error, drop to the immedeate window and type:<br><br>? Err.Number<br><br>Then build your Select Case statement in your error handler from the numbers you get from trying different things.&nbsp;&nbsp;Works for me in a pinch.&nbsp;&nbsp;I checked the Object viewer and it doesn't show the error constants for the object. <p>Steve<br><a href=mailto:tribesaddict@swbell.net>tribesaddict@swbell.net</a><br><a href= > </a><br>

I usually run with &quot;Break on *all* errors&quot; set in Tools/Options - would that help? <p>Mike<br><a href=mailto:michael.j.lacey@ntlworld.com>michael.j.lacey@ntlworld.com</a><br><a href=

not during production time(release to customers) but I see your point, it would be more helpful if MSDN had the list of these code, I could test for one of them, but I am unsure about all the errors that could occur with just one of their commands. <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href=
