[Gambas-user] Probably a really dumb question about Error

Hi List,

I ran in to an odd problem when I used:

Try whatever
If error then
    do-somehing
end if

Where despite Try Whatever, not generating an error, it still when on to 
the do-something. When I logged what was happening, it was carrying 
forward the last known error in my program (in this case where I'd 
tested for the existance of a particular directory).

I read the docs, and it doesn't mention that one should do an 
error.clear, before a try

But... If I put error.clear, before the above code, it doesn't trip the 
error, so logically it would seem to me that before every Try, one 
should do an error.clear

?is this correct.

If not, could some kind sould explain to me what to do and how to user 
Error?

Thanks

richard
