ERDEV

Returns an integer error code from the last device that declared an error.

Syntax

ERDEV

Comments

The MS-DOS critical error handler sets the value for ERDEV. The lower byte contains the MS-DOS error code (0 through 12). The upper byte contains device attribute information.

Example

ON ERROR GOTO Handler
...
Handler:
  PRINT "Error accessing device "; ERDEV$
  PRINT "Error status code "; ERDEV
  ...
