Can you remove "The application has encountered an error.."

[damon_pillinger]

HI Guys,

is there a way to remove the “The application has encountered an error and cannot continue” SEND / DONT SEND popup?

When you click on DONT SEND the app will still run and you can try again.
When you click on SEND the app closes and doesn’t issue the CLOSE event.

It would be best not to have it if possible.

Thanks
Damon

It depends on the error you are getting. If it’s an exception in your app, the way to prevent this is to add correct exception handling to your app. At the very least, implement the UnhandledException event on Session and App.

Hi Greg,

cool - thanks - will do

The UnhandledException event does not prevent the default error dialog from being shown. The UnhandledException code just runs along side the error dialog. Since the original question, has a way to suppress the error dialog been implemented?

[Greg_O_Lone]

Have you tried returning True from the UnhandledException event?

Didn’t know about that option, thanks.

Didn’t know about that option

That’s what the documentation is for
Application.UnhandledException

Return True to suppress the quit behavior. Return False to use the default quit behavior.

WebApplication.UnhandledException

Returns a Boolean. If it returns True, the standard alert indicating an unhandled exception and quit behavior are suppressed. Return False to allow the default unhandled exception error processing to occur.
