You ordinarily provide error-handling functionality for run-time errors in your code. However, run-time errors can occur when none of your code is running, such as when:
A user clicks a data control button.
The data control automatically opens a database and loads a recordset after the Form_Load event.
A custom control performs an operation such as the MoveNext method, the AddNew method, or the Delete method.
If an error results from one of these actions, the Error event occurs.
