Under what circumstances is the Err object reset?

| I am loosing the contents of the Err object as I catch (and rethrow)
these exceptions going up the function chain. Somewhere along the line
the data in the Err object is lost and the custom error number is
converted to error 5. Under what circumstances would the error be reset?
Thanks.

I should point out that it works great in the IDE, but not as an
executable. Why in the world would that happen?

Any use of 'On Error' will reset the object.
Help says.....
"Err Object
<section snipped>
The Err object's properties are reset to zero or zero-length strings ("")
after an Exit Sub, Exit Function, Exit Property or Resume Next statement
within an error-handling routine. Using any form of the Resume statement
outside of an error-handling routine will not reset the Err object's
properties. The Clear method can be used to explicitly reset Err."

| Also, the Err object is a different one for each project. Hence, if you
called across a DLL interface then you would see a different Err object on
the other side. Is your application a single project, or were you debugging
a project group in the IDE Frank?
