i did not see this option initially. I have a follow up question... I am playing with this command. I have the following code: $x:=METHOD Get path(Path Project method;"does not exist") TRACE $x:=METHOD Get path(Path Project method;"url_Errtxt_Init") TRACE
the first call to get method path - the method does not exist, in the second it does. There is no difference in return value (the method name) nor is an error generated from the first call. I can get an error to be generated by calling METHOD GET MODIFICATION DATE, but the documentation says they an error should be generated if the method does not exists when I call METHOD Get path. Ideas?
