Macro-Action Failed - Halt

Hi
I have 40 or so .csv files attached to my access xp.mdb. I am running a macro of about 40 append quires. If I pickup a damaged or partial file - that append query will fail. I do not get an option of continue or ignore. It halts the entire macro. Is there any way to disregard that query and allow the macro to continue. Set warnings in macro does not work. I have converted to code with DoCmd.OpenQuery and DoCmd.SetWarnings. I can't get that to work either.

Thanks,

Craig

I think that it is better to use code to run your queries...

Something like

function run_my_queries()

On Error resume next

Dim mydb As Database
Dim i

Set mydb = CurrentDb()

mydb.Execute (SQL1) 'executes the first SQL
mydb.Execute (SQL2)
......
and so on


mydb.close
end function

When it gives you an error immediately the execution is passed to the next query

U can run this using Macro and the command RunCode

I hope that'll help U :)
