As I was reading this Discussion and where it was heading, I decided to input some thought.

As a former School teacher, I understand the notion that its better to teach someone to fish and they will eat for a lifetime.

Now with that out of my head, The thought of adding a return code to the UDF other than the microsoft simple error code is a good idea from the programmers point of view so that he can debug it, but How many people come on to this board as programmers?

Most of the people I see that want to use the UDF's and who we make the UDF's available for are the ones who can't program, need a quick fix for a problem and do not know what to do with the error codes to begin with.

Why make it harder for the people we are trying to help make it easier for in the first place?
