Avoid "No Records Match ..." diaglog box

[Jason Goldsmith]

I'm scripting a find using Perform Find. If no records are found, I get the following dialog box:

"No records match this set of find requests" followed by Cancel, Continue, and Modify Find buttons.

I would like to have a custom dialog box appear which says, "No records found", and the script then stops. I don't like the standard dialog box above, primarily because if the user selects cancel, the script stops at a bad step in my particular script, and if they select continue they end up in the wrong layout.

I have tried:

Perform find

If (Get (found count) = 0)

Show custom dialog ["No records found"]

Halt script

End if

But I still get the above dialog box if the Perform find comes up with an empty set.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

You need to use the script step [color:blue]Set Error Capture On and trap for the error [color:blue]401
