Obtaining better understanding of LV error handlilng

Can anyone suggest a good read that provides detailed discussion on proper methods of error propogation in LabVIEW.  For example, when you have a looping structure, and tracking what iteration caused a failure, or, the proper usage of Clear Errors.vi and Error to Warnings, what to do with errors (Error out) when performing multiple (sequential) tests as may be done when using TestStand.

Hi!

I don't now such a file, even don't know if somthing exists, my searchings had no result! However, when you want to know in which iteration of a loop a error happend, you can simpy use the status of the error cluster for condition to save the current iterationnumber, so you will know when the error happend. About the error VIs, i think there is nowhere else more information than the LabVIEW help provides!

So you can do nearly anything you want, using errors, programmatically, also collect errors, in a array of error clusters, concerning to your question of the sequential tests!

Regards, Christian

I highly recommend you check out The LabVIEW Style Book (http://www.amazon.com/LabVIEW-National-Instruments-Virtual-Instrumentation/dp/0131458353/sr=8-1/qid=... ) when it's available.  There is an entire chapter devoted to Error Handling techniques.
