How to bypass 'No current record' error

When I delete a record in a subform I get the warning that I'm about to
delete a record, followed by an error "No current record." When I
click OK obviously the record is deleted and it goes to the first
record (as I've coded it to do) or it shows me a blank record if the
deleted record was the only one.

So, what I'd like to do is bypass that 'No current record' altogether
to avoid user confusion. Is there any way to code it out without
ignoring my error handling?

Thanks!!

If is occurs in Access 2002 Service Pack 3, then it is a known bug.

Temporarily comment out any error handler handler so your code pauses at the
error. Note the error number. In the error handler part of your code, just
ignore that error, i.e. insert:
If Err.Number <> xxxx Then

Allen, THANK YOU! That is exactly what I needed. However, my error
didn't have a number so I used...

If Err.Description = "No current record" Then Resume
Exit_cmdDeleteWall_Click

It does have a number, given by Err.Number.

I believe this one is 3021.

(Better to use the numbers, in case MS changes the messages, or your db is
used in a different language.)
