Hi,
you can do it in this way:

VB

Err_UpLd:
   If(Err.Number = 91) then
      MsgBox "Wrong password"
   End If 
End Sub

Update:
Or,

VB

Err_UpLd:
If(Err.Description <> "") Then
   MsgBox "Error Ocurred --> " & Err.Description
End If

I hope this is what you wanted.

Thnks Tarun,
I have allready used this, my problem is that when the error occurs it does not goes to label Err_uplod:. The error shows at the same line

Tarun.K.S 5-Jul-11 5:15am

That's weird. It works fine here. Let me update the answer with one more thing.

Thanks tarun,
it does not matter that what the error nomber or message, the execution shows error at the same line. It does not go to the label. So plese help me...

I'm feeling helpless as I'm not able to figure out why is it not going to the Err_UpLd.

Sahu.Ashok 5-Jul-11 8:49am
