on error errtxt

my log_eventlocal("Error with Account Creation"& errtxt)

end try

on log_eventlocal(themessage)

set theLine to (do shell script "date +'%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'" as string) & " " & themessage

do shell script "echo " & theLine & " >> " & logpath & "/test.txt"

end log_eventlocal

but the error returned by the lovely Entourage has a ' in text.. which catches out my shell script!

i'll have a think....

----

tried a search, its kinda poor searching the list eh!

still

hopefully nice n simple, in a try block when i hit an error i want to parse the

error to my logger...

sudocodeish

on error

my log_eventlocal("Error with Account Creation. Error:" & error_message)

i just want the error returned by what-ever application i'm trying to be added to the end of my error message...

hope this makes enough sense and i'm sure its simple!

thanks
