Thanks, Peter, I'm planning on implementing code that will email me notifications, with some error source info. Will this kind of error information be available in my app?
My apps get pretty complicated and I want to know when users encounter bugs in my software. I know there is a flag that can be set in standalones, to get error reports emailed to me, but many of the computers that students use don't have email set up, so I need to send it from my server.
