[RESOLVED] brute force catch all error handler?

Hi All

I have a program that uses a lowlevel hook to the keyboard.
Untill now I haven't really bothered using error handling as I try to use any errors to make changes to code instead of using a app that is able to have errors (if you know what I mean)

but with the current program I want to make sure that if there is a runtime error, the hook will be cleared so as not to mess things up on the PC.

Ive looked at some examnples and tutorials on the basics of error handling, that show a softly sfotly approach, writing handlers inrto most procedures, lots of nice errror number reporting, etc.
Is there a way to write one error handler to handle the lot and just execute one action before the program dies, without worying about all the other stuff?

EG:

vb Code:

Public Sub OnError()
    Call ClearWinHook
    Unload
End Sub

Ta in advance

No. If you want to have a "brute force" error handler the only way is to put something like the following in every procedure, where in your case DisplayError would be the "brute force" error handler. BTW MZTools allows you to put the code in the following in every procedure at the click of a button in each Sub and Function.

Code:

---

Private Sub Form_Load()

    On Error GoTo ErrorRoutine

   

    Exit Sub

ErrorRoutine:

    DisplayError "Form_Load"
End Sub

---

if all you want to do is clear the hooks etc, you could just put unload me for every sub that you want to error handle, in the unload event of the form you will have all the code you want to run to clear whatever
