At the top of the sub that has problems put On Error GoTo MyErrorHandler and then at the bottom put On Error Goto 0 Exit Sub MyErrorHandler: MsgBox "Error " & Err.Number & " (" & Err.Description & ") at line " & Erl Rather than using a MsgBox as I have here consider writing down to a file instead. Also for Erl to work correctly considering numbering each of your lines.

This error never occured. But when i made a package of my application and sent to the client, he gets this when he tries to run the installed exe. The exact point of error is hence not known.I am making use of SaveSetting and GetSetting.Yes I am using GotFocus method also. But This error has occured even before I used GotFocus method.
