Hi again.
I've got it working, kinda...
I added an if statement, that goes
if file.exists= false then
MsgBox ("No Master Access File")
end if
This works... but is it graceful <smile>

A more general approach is to add a module method or class to your
projects that evaluates file errors, for example in a module or window:
Sub ReportFileError(f as folderItem)
dim Error as integer = f.LastErrorCode
Select Case Error
Case 101
MsgBox "The file was not found"
Case 102
MsgBox "Access to this file was denied"
Case 104
MsgBox "This file is in use"
Case 105
MsgBox "You used an invalid name"
End Select
End Sub
Then your file opening code can be along these lines:
...
If file = nil then
msgbox "A file error occured"
End if
filereadfrom = file.OpenAsTextFile
If filereadfrom = nil then
ReportFileError file
Else
//Do your stuff
filereadfrom = nil
End
Best regards,
Jack
