morning all.
a colleague and I are expanding our macros to start including a specific
error trap or handler so we can move files to a lateral directory, and deal
with them after we're done processing all of our files-- around 5000 files in
all.

One of the things that I've noticed about previous macros that some of you
have helped with is that with the application.inputboxes an error trap is
placed. I.e., if I had 5 input boxes, there would be 5 error traps.

So, my questions are about the placement of error traps, or error handling
statements:

Is it best/wisest to place an error trap/handler (and if I'm saying this
wrong, please forgive me, I'm still vague on sematics with this kind of
thing) at every location where it's plausible that an error will occur?

Or, can we place a single error handler within a macro, and if an error
occurs, it calls to our lateral transfer macro?


Thank you.
Best,
SteveB.
