Hello World :)
I'm not that good at errorhandling yet,
but why doesn't this work?
I call this sub att form load.
I get "Error 53 file doesn't exist" all the time and that is correct because the file doesn't exist yet.
The user have to run the program once to create the file. should I create the file at form load or something to prevent this.
Code:
Private Sub ReadFromFile()
Dim strTemp As String
Dim strX As String
On Error GoTo ErrorHandling
Open App.Path & "\Recent.txt" For Input As #1
Do While strTemp <> "[END]"
Line Input #1, strTemp
If strTemp <> "[END]" Then cboSentMessages.AddItem strTemp
Loop
Close #1
Exit Sub
ErrorHandling:
End Sub

Code:
ErrorHandling:
if err.number = 53 then
msgbox "No File, No Fun..."
resume next
end if

Thank you Inhumanoid
But the problem is still there.
I've tried to put the error handling in the calling routine but that doesn't work either :(
I call this sub from form_load so I think I will make a check if the file exists and f it doesn't then I will create it. Not the smotthest way but it will generate no error for me :) (I hope)

I just ran this on my machine:
Code:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Call ReadFromFile
End Sub
Private Sub ReadFromFile()
Dim strTemp As String
Dim strX As String
On Error GoTo ErrorHandling
Open App.Path & "\Recent.txt" For Input As #1
Do While strTemp <> "[END]"
Line Input #1, strTemp
If strTemp <> "[END]" Then cboSentMessages.AddItem strTemp
Loop
Close #1
Exit Sub
ErrorHandling:
If Err.Number = 53 Then
MsgBox "No File, No Fun..."
Resume Next
End If
End Sub
It worked fine (also when I compiled it)...
Goto Tools-options (in the menubar).. Go to tabstrip general. Take a look at the frame "Error trapping" and make sure it is NOT set on "Break on all errors"...
It should work, now...
B.T.W. If you get the code to work now (without vb giving you some run-time error crap), it might be an idea to put code that generates the file in the errorhandler

Thank you :) :) :)
Of course the option was set to "break on all errors"!! :o
Sometimes the answer is to close to see.
Thank you again
