VBScript Error Codes & Description Help

[Phylum]

Every now and again I run into some coding error and although Err.Number reveals a number, Err.Description is blank.

For instance, on my machine while trying to add two printers via VBScript it failed with error code -2147023095. Although the description was blank, a quick search revealed that the objects (printers) could not be found. I expected this error because those print queues didn't exist so I wasn't concerned.

However when another machine ran the same script, nearly every printer fails with error code -2147024773. I've Google'd that error but I have yet to find any useful results.

So the question is really two fold:
1) What does error code -2147024773 indicate?
2) Is there a site that has a catalog displays every [possible] error code? (like -2147016657 which usually meants there's a problem with the password due to some kind of requirement)

Technet or MSDN should be able to identify those codes for you.

I hope that helps.
