Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

 LOCAL Keyword
 
 ■ The LOCAL keyword is used in the ON ERROR statement to indicate that a
   local error-handling routine, rather than a module-level error handler,
   is enabled or disabled.
 
 ■ Error-handling routines that are local to a procedure:
   • Are enabled only for as long as the procedure in which they are located
     is active
   • Override any enabled module-level error handler routines
