Title: vb..object closed!
Post by: davypipes on March 04, 2005, 14:21

am getting this error everytime i cancell any update i do in my form:

error "3704"
"operation not allowed when object is closed"

heres the code snippet:

Private Sub cmdcancel_Click()
'dataenv is my dataenvironment connected to a access dbse  
With dataenv.rssale
.CancelUpdate

End With
End Sub
any ideas on wats wrong?

and another thing...emmm..is it a good idea to trap error numbers and use them for validation? eg:
     errornum=Err.number
     if errornum=1234567 then
     msgbox(please enter all required values)
     end if

will a different number be generated on a different machine?hence not doing the validation ?
