Error number
number
Error invokes the error handler specified with On Error or, in case there was none set, aborts the program, printing an error message similar to those generated by the compiler's -exx run-time error checking. It's possible to use the built-in run-time error numbers and/or other custom error numbers for number. This can be used to simulate custom error numbers.
To send an error alert of error 150 (just some arbitrary error code) one would do the following:
