Do you refer to this page regularly? If so, I'd welcome your direct comments on how this does or does not answer your scripting needs. Please email the FAQ author so I can improve the FAQ in this area.
******************************
When an operation fails, Document.LastError is set to the custom error code. For successful calls the LastError value will be zero.
Thus while most functions themselves return a success/failure flag, interrogation of LastError will (may) indicate the actual cause, e.g. that you are trying to open as admin a catalogue that is already open in admin (noting admin needs single user unique access).
In simple terms, if the method's success flag is true, proceed as intended; if false, get the LastError value and take according action through an error handler.
