Catching warning messages sent by Oracle

[Jess]

I have an access-based interface talking to an Oracle database. Data
integrity rules are implemented in Oracle. Whenever a data integrity rule is
violated Access (or Oracle?) displays a warning message. Is there a way in
access to catch that message and make decisions based on it?

Hi Jess,

Standard error processing should catch the Oracle errors.

Public Sub MySub()

On Error Resume Next

' Do something associated with Oracle linked table that might cause error
If Err.Number = 0 Then
' Processing if no error
Else
' Processing related to error
' ...
Err.Clear ' Clear the error condition once no longer needed
' ...
End If

End Sub

Hope that helps,

Clifford Bass

You can use the Errors collection to trap specific Open Database
Connectivity (ODBC) errors. However, you must loop through all of the
elements in the collection to access the ODBC error information.
