    When an error is generated it will display the associated error number. In this way, you can connect the number with the error in your error trapping routine. Example: Error 13 is a Type Mismatch and 68 is Drive Not Found, so, knowing this, you can trap for errors, and handle each error differently.
    VB Code:
    1. Private Sub DoSomethingCool()

    2. On Error Goto ErrRtn

    3. 'code to do cool stuff

    4. Exit Sub

    5. ErrRtn:

    6.    Select Case Err

    7.      Case 13 'type mismatch

    8.        'handle type mismatch

    9.      Case 68 'drive not found

    10.        'handle drive not found

    11.      Case SoOnAndSoForth

    12.        'handle SoOnAndSoForth

    13.      Case Else

    14.        Msgbox Err & " " & Error

    15.    End Select

    16. End Sub
