Sorry, I ment to say DBEngine Errors.
The error I need to trap is caused by typing a value not in the lookup
table.

EX:  Vendor Table has entries for these vendors:

ACME, KODAK, UPS

in a Transaction Table the user enters a vendor name of "AME"
Which was "ACME" misspelled.
This will throw an exception due to unique value constraints.
That is what I need to trap. People have told me to code it in the post()
event, but I don't know just how to code it.
