Much worse: it's the equivalent of this:
C#
try { DoSomething(); }
catch {}
try { DoSomething1(); }
catch {}
try { DoSomething2(); }
catch {}
try { DoSomething3(); }
catch {}
try { DoSomething4(); }
catch {}
It discards errors with no hope of telling if they ever occured, no debug to find out what failed or why, and worse, it's hidden in a single line of code that could be pages away from the faults. So if you just look at the "relevant code fragment" you have no idea that every problem is being swallowed and ignored.

On Error Resume Next is a good reason why VB should just be banned ... Big Grin | :-D
