I know why this is happening to me. It's due to a database password on an MS
Access file. I can put code in each page that calls the database and
redirect the user to the log in page, but I was wondering if I could trap
this error and cause it to be dealt with as I would a 404 error. Is there
any universal way to trap this error?

Thanks

One way would be to use an include file that performs the database
connection.
Another would be to use a custom error page:

Thanks Bob. I have used the include to manage the connection, or actually to
redirect the viewer to the login page when the session variable was not yet
set. I just hate to do this on each and every page I'm working on.

Thanks.
