Purpose

Simulates the occurrence of an error condition. You can issue this statement from the MapBasic window in MapInfo Pro.

Syntax

Error error_num

error_num is an integer error number.

Description

The Error statement simulates the occurrence of an error.

If an error-handling routine has been enabled through an OnError statement, the simulated error will cause MapBasic to perform the appropriate error-handling routine. If no error handling routine has been enabled, the error simulated by the Error statement will cause the MapBasic application to halt after displaying an appropriate error message.
