You can set the ERROR variable to whatever name you wish like:
Set Error Variable vERR integer = 0
Then test for the value of vERR "immediately" after a command that you want
to trap the error and test for non zero. If you know what the error number
is in advance, you could test for comparison like:
If vERR = nnnn
where nnnn is the number to test against.
In RBase Help:
Syntax: SET ERROR VARIABLE varname

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Date Entry-Error Error Codes?
All:
RBE9.1_64 9.1.5.20510
Let's say I type a bad date: '06/31/2012' into a variable edit form control;
or during a gateway import a funky date is processed.
In the first instance, RBase blanks the field entry, returning the cursor to
the first character position. In the second, I've not tried it yet.
Either way, does R:Base throw a 'capture-able' error code available to
exception handling routines?
TIA
Bruce
