Vista - trap exception

12-21-2006

I use this at the beginning of my code...

trap [System.exception] {
$_.exception.getbaseexception().message;
}

I am able to get the original error message, but how do I get the error
number? (ie. '5' for access denied)...

This is a trap to handle COMexceptions (VMserver COM object).

Also how can I continue my code after trapping an error?

i got the error number >>> $_.exception.getbaseexception().errorCode

How do I continue the code after a trap?
