VBA error handling just got easier...
" vbWatchdog is off the chart. It solves a long standing problem of how to consolidate error handling into one global location and avoid repetitious code within applications. "

Standard compilation to MDE/ACCDE format is flawed and reversible.
Here are some facts about #ERROR returned when a subform has no records:In these examples, [Subf field] refers to a syntactically correctreference to a subform field from a main form.
1. It will not evaluate to null: IsNull([Subf field]) is false
2. It will evaluate to an error on the main form, but not when passeto a global
module:
IsError([Subf field]) on the main form evaluates to true
IsAnError([Subf field]) returns false, where this function exists in
a global module:
Function IsAnError(testvalue as variant) as Boolean
IsAnError = IsError(testvalue)
End Function
3. It will not evaluate to numeric. IsNumeric([subf field]) evaluates to false.
I have found this to be the best test, since often it is a total or other number being passed back to the main form. If not, there is usually some numeric field on the sub that can be tested whether or not it is the field used on the main form.
This test indicates when there are records, IsNumeric will be true; when there are no records, IsNumeric will be false. So, you can catch "no records" and display what you want instead of #ERROR.
This function returns zero instead of #ERROR when used like this:nnz([Subf field]) on the main form. I use it from a global module.
