I am running a for loop which analyzes all files in a folder. Some of the files have messy data and return an error. Rather than go through and manually figure out which ones don't work, is there a way for the code to simply recognize the error and move on to the next file?

Thanks.

Possibly: if it fails out using error() then you can detect that and continue
gracefully using a try/catch block.
