Is it possible in anyway to trap or direct errors that occur?

For example in VB you can direct the program to a message box if an error is detected. This is done through an "on error goto" statement. It would be nice to do that in DBP so an end user doesn't get an "Error on Line XX" statement. Looks unprofessional.

Thank you TGC for creating such amazing products!

Not possible in the basic product, but take a look at IanM's Matrix utilities (in DLL Talk, I think). There is some error trapping functionality in one of those.

You can, of course, code to prevent obvious errors. For example, you never need to have an error concerning missing files, divide by zero, array out of bounds, etc, because you can avoid them with good coding practises.
