Try catch together with dbstop

Hi All,

I want to use Try Catch together with dbstop. What I want to do is to email ME.message and then breakpoint on error with "dbstop if all error"

function myFunction()
try
    xxxx
    xxxxxx
    xxxx (error occure here!)
    xxxxx
    
catch ME
    EmailMe(ME.message);
    dbstop if all error
    
end

Note that after try (xxxx), there are several functions that I cannot repeat the code after "dbstop if all error".

If I put "dbstop if all error" at the begining, then cannot email "ME.message".

Any solusion to this issue?!

Instead of using dbstop at that point, use keyboard() which gives you a command prompt in debug mode.

Hi and thanks.

keyboard() would just pause the execution and not a breakpoint on error line!

keyboard() is almost the same as pause().

keyboard gives you a command prompt in a debugging session. dbstop calls keyboard() when it detects an error.

dbstop only applies to later errors, not to any error condition you are already in the catch block of.
