Well, first you have to define "it"--i.e., what are the benefits of exceptions? To my mind, exceptions are designed for situations where the generator of the error doesn't know what to do about it. So it "throws" up its hands and casts the problem to the wind. My Palm apps are typically so tiny that the generator of the error (or at least its caller) does in fact know what to do about errors, so the main benefit of exceptions is lost. -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
