How do I display user error messages?

  • Does anyone know how I can go about creating/using a tool that can display user errors to end users? I have a web interface that users will use to upload data to a database table. I want to be able to display user error messages to the user at the front end if there are any errors during the upload. Is there currently an sql tool that I can use for this? Or is there a way to get this implemented from the back end?

    Please help.

    Thanks

  • Usually, your application will capture SQL errors. What are you using for your front-end?

  • Thanks for your response SSChampion. The front end is a classic asp application.

  • you should then do this in classic asp, SQL Server is a server application and is not meant to pass error messages to the end user.

    code your asp app to hanlde the errors and convert db errors into meaningful messages for the end user
