Getting Error Information

I'm trying to modify the "error system" to allow me to log errors to a file.
I need to get certain information to write to the file. The main
information I want to get is the procedure (and line # if possible) where
the error occurred. Is there a way to get this while the program is
running? If not, is there a way to get an address that I can track back to
the procedure/line? I've tried on several occassions to use an address
provided by an error message to look for a procedure/line using the
Search/Find Error option, but it always comes back with "error not found."
(or something to that affect).

Thanks,
Jesse

I think you must create a map file, and doublecheck the error address with the
procedure at that address (at least something along these lines, haven't done
it myself).
