Try Catch was added in VFP 8. It's a little more work in VFP 5. You can create a custom class and implement its error handler.
Off the cuff here: Define class trycatcher as custom Procedure RunBlock THIS.TryBlock() THIS.FinallyBlock() Endproc Procedure TryBlock *-- Abstract Method for processing Endproc Procedure FinallyBlock *-- Abstract method for cleanup Endproc Procedure Error LParameters tnError, tcMethod, tnLine ASSERT .F. MESSAGE "An error occurred." Return To RunBlock EndProc EndDefine Calling methods from the TryBlock will increase debugging complexity. Be sure to clean up any object created in the TryBlock. Localized objects will not clean up correctly if an error occurs. You should have AddProperty() method of the class available to you. If you need to create objects, that is.
