Yes. You need to be *very* clear about which specific “not working” conditions you expect to handle, and catch only those. Also, having identified which specific conditions you will handle, you need to break complex statements and expressions into simpler ones, and only place reduce the ‘try’ block to only those statements which will encounter those conditions. Move everything else outside the ‘try … except …’ altogether. -- \ “In prayer, it is better to have a heart without words than | `\ words without heart.” —Mohandas K.
