HSC Line Numbers Description:

This VB 6 addi-in does two things, both with the same focus - creating a global error handler for a VB application. First, it allows you to number every line of code in an application (the ones that can be). Second, it places error handler code in every procedure within the application and adds a new module to the program to handle errors globally.

My intent when writing this was to allow the programmer to write the entire program without any error handling, then have a simple means to add it after the fact.

Global error handling was enabled to allow collection of all errors at a single point to simplify capture and logging of all errors. By numbering the lines, exact locations for every error may be determined from the log file. The added module does not incorporate logging, but it has a remarked place holder where your logging code should go. The error handler has a number of default messages which can be displayed depending on the format of the call. By default, no message is displayed.

The add-in allows you to capture a build (with line numbers) to a text file for future review.

The unregistered version has some features disabled and limited ability to insert line numbers.
