Hi.  I'm sorry if this is an RTFM but I've checked all of the FMs I can find and it's not covered.

Anyway...

My application gets a file name and then tries to open the file.  If the file dosen't exist then the application stops.  I'd like to be able to catch the error and handle it a bit more gracefully.  Can someone point me to a way to accomplish this?

    Many thanks,
    Steve
