From: a on 18 Feb 2010 18:44 is there a way to get the actual line of source code of an error that occurs? i.e. source code: a=1/0 error description returns "a=1/0" i can think of an ugly way of doing it, basically put line numbers in the code to get the error line, then compare that to the .frm text and copy the text where it matches on the line number. I am hoping there is a better and easier way.

He can't get the actual code. Best he can do is report the line number and then find that line number in his source code. If you don't make your line numbers unique throughout the entire project, the error message should also identify the procedure by name (which has to be a literal string). -- Mike

yes, i want the actual code. If I'm on the road or away from my computer and I get a support email on my blackberry or something, which lists only the line number, it doesn't help me much. If I know the error source, I can perhaps think of what might be happening. looks like i'll have to do it the way i propose...make txt files of the .frm's and do local lookup based on the form name and error line number. Then send that along. thanks for the replies.
