Error trapping after Dir statement
 

I have a line of code thus...

strDirName = Dir(strRootDir, vbDirectory + vbNormal)

If it is a directory to which I do not have access, err.number 52 is
returned along with a debug dialogue box.

I now change it to...

On error resume next
strDirName = Dir(strRootDir, vbDirectory + vbNormal)

I still get the dialogue debug box even with the 'On error resume next
statement'.

Any ideas as to why ?

Regards, Jim.
