I have an error handler: On Error GoTo Outtahere
At the end of the routine, the OuttaHere section reads:

OuttaHere:
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
If Err.Number = 3061 Then
Debug.Print " Failed to get " & strFileName & " data"
Err.Clear
GoTo NextFile 'most likely, the spreadsheet lacks the
lowUtilizationANDMemory field
Else
MsgBox "Error # " & Err.Number & ", " & Err.Description & ", occurred.
The function 'GetLowUtilServers' will abort.", _
vbCritical + vbOKOnly, "Failed To Record Dashboard LowUtil
Data"
Err.Clear
End If
End If

The error 3061 happens when a field called in a query doesn't exist in the
spreadsheet. This is expected behavior. I'm looping through a directory full
of spreadsheets. I'd like to resume the loop at the NextFile section:

NextFile:
strFileName = Dir
Loop
End If

I neglected to mention the main problem which is in the subject line. The
problem is, the error routine works fine for the 1st workbook that doesn't
have the field, but fails to trap subsequent errors. It just stops on the
line:

Set rs = .OpenRecordset(strSQL)

and displays the default 3061 error msg.

Maybe try another attack tact.
On Error Goto 0 'stop error trapping
On Error Resume Next
...execute a statement that gets an error
If Err.Number = 0 then
...process
Else
...error trapping
Endif

Try replacing the statement GoTo NextFile with Resume NextFile.
