your program does not trap them, the VB default action is to report the vb6 throw error error and then terminate the program (often resulting in the end user calling you and complaining, "Your program kicked me out!"). on error goto By placing error-handling code in your program, you can trap a run-time error, report it, and let the user continue. Sometimes the user will be able to correct the error and sometimes not, but simply

allowing the program to crash is not acceptable. You should generally place error-handling code in any Sub or Function that accesses files or databases. Your code will typically interrogate the Number and Description properties of the built-in VB Err object in an error-handling routine set up with the On Error statement. In this section, we will look at the following statements: On Error GoTo label On Error Resume

Next Following is a brief tutorial in error-handling. To perform this tutorial, you should have a floppy disk handy. Also, in the VB IDE, make sure that the Break on Unhandled Errors option is set under Tools à Options à General. STEPS: 1. Start a new project. 2. Place four command buttons on the form. Name them and set their Captions as follows: Name Caption cmdCrash Crash cmdGoToLabel GoTo Label cmdGoTo0 GoTo 0 cmdResumeNext Resume Next Your form should look something like this: 3. Code the cmdCrash_Click event as follows: Private Sub cmdCrash_Click() Open "A:\JUNK.TXT" For Input As #1 MsgBox "File was opened successfully" Close #1 End Sub 4. Place your floppy disk in the A: drive. Run the program and click the Crash button. Assuming that you do not have a file called "JUNK.TXT" on your A: disk, the program will "bomb" with the code/message "53 – File Not Found". If you don't have a disk in drive A:, the code/message will be "71 – Disk Not Ready". 5. Code the cmdGoToLabel_Click event: Copy and paste the code from the Crash sub, and add statements so that the cmdGoToLabel_Click Sub looks like the following (the new statements are shown in

Crowder Jan 19 '10 at 7:31 @T.J. Crowder. That's not completely correct. The VB6 IDE is unsupported but the VB6 runtime is supported for the full support lifetime of Windows 7, which is until about 2019 msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vbrun/ms788708.aspx –MarkJ Jan 19 '10 at 8:56 @MarkJ: Very useful distinction indeed, thank you. @OP and other readers: If you don't read the link, just be clear that when they say the IDE, that includes the compiler (e.g., the compiler has been unsupported for more than a year and a half); it's the runtime that will continue to be supported through Windows 7 (but not, they say explicitly in that article, beyond that). Cheers again, Mark. –T.J. Crowder Jan 19 '10 at 13:07 @T.J. Crowder. Me again, sorry! The article says "there are no plans to include VB6 runtime in future versions of Windows beyond Windows 7". IMHO that doesn't say they definitely won't support it beyond Windows 7. It just says they haven't made their minds up yet, but in a way that's calculated to try to push people away
