Error reporting

[Calz]

I have the following within a script which has been tweaked a bit for here

Sub install_app

Wscript.Echo (err.number)
strAppCmd = c:\windows\notepad.exe
call objShell.Run (strAppCMD, 7, True)
Wscript.Echo (err.number)
End Sub

I get 0 then 0 but If I rename notepad the script bombs out rather than give me the error within the script that I can handle, if I add on error resume next it just finishes.

How can I get it to handle the errors?

[tt]Sub install_app
[red]on error resume next '<<<add here[/red]
Wscript.Echo (err.number)
strAppCmd = c:\windows\notepad.exe
call objShell.Run (strAppCMD, 7, True)
Wscript.Echo (err.number)
End Sub[/tt]

As simple as that
Thanks.

Yes, it is as simple. But on error resume next of the world won't help compile time error. This is one.
>strAppCmd = c:\windows\notepad.exe
[tt]strAppCmd = [red]"[/red]c:\windows\notepad.exe[red]"[/red][/tt]
