    Err.Raise 40040 Bug from MS

    BUG: Err.Raise 40040 Stores the Err.Number as 440

    SYMPTOMS
    When the statement Err.Raise 40040 is executed, the value of Err.Number is set to 440.

    RESOLUTION
    Do not use the user defined error 40040.

    STATUS
    Microsoft has confirmed that this is a bug in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.

    MORE INFORMATION
    If you raise the error code 40040 (=&H9C68) using the Err.Raise method, Visual Basic sets the value of Err.Number to 440. The Err.Description and other properties of the Err object are set correctly.

    Steps to Reproduce Behavior
    1. Create a Visual Basic Standard EXE project. Form1 is created by default.
    2. Paste the following code in the General Declarations section of Form1:
    VB Code:
    1. Private Sub Form_Load()

    2.    On Error Resume Next

    3.    Err.Raise 40040

    4.    MsgBox Err.Number & ": " & Err.Description ' will display 440

    5.    Err.Clear ' Clear the error for the next Raise method

    6.    Err.Raise 440

    7.    MsgBox Err.Number & ": " & Err.Description

    8. End Sub
    3. Run the program. A message box with the error number and description raised for 40040 will be displayed.
    4. Click OK and a message box with the error number and description raised for 440 will be displayed.

    Scientists have determined that all potatoes today originated from a "mother" potato species in Peru about 7000 years ago. The Adam and Eve of all potatoes.

    I went to MSDN KB and was looking for a list of error codes but of course did not find any, then found this article and thought I should post it here. Just in case anyone didn't know -- I know I didn't.

    Shouldn't this thread be in the General PC or Classic VB forums? Then it may be taken a bit seriously...
