Hi,

I read another post in here which is basically
my same question. Why does the GetLastError
function always return a blank value.

The response from you was:

>>>>Make sure it is the first statement executed after an error.

So, I went and wrote a simple script (modeled
after the help example) and I still can't get an
error message string.

Here is my sample script:

Dim errMessage, string, ""
OnErrorGoTo DISP_ERROR
FileDelete( "c:\\zzzzzzz.txt" ) <<--- this file does not exist.

DISP_ERROR:
GETLASTERROR errMessage
MessageBox(errMessage)

Why can't I trap this message?

Hmm. I also get an empty string whith this script.
Will do some more testing... I am running version 3.4.5

Thanks for the quick response.

If this is a bug, is there a workaround?

Yes, this appears to be a bug which will be fixed in the next maintanence release.
I have copied several files from v3.4.6 (pre-release) to http://www.softtreetech.com/24x7/fixes/24x7_v346.zip
Download and unzip it into 24x7 home directory. This should fix the problem.
