How to customize the log file error message to specific error message

Dear QV Expert,

Today I was looking for a possibility to customize the log file error at the end of the file should be showing the message which we want to show.

2017-11-24 14:12:29      Error: Cannot open file: 'path'

2017-11-24 14:12:29      Execution Failed

2017-11-24 14:12:29      Execution finished.

instead of this

2017-11-24 14:12:29      Error: My Personal Message to appear here...

2017-11-24 14:12:29      Execution Failed

2017-11-24 14:12:29      Execution finished.

Something like updating the

ScriptErrorList=' Custom Message'

Also, we want to fail the QV reload and send the log message accordingly.

To do so we have Set the ErrorMode =2 which is also not working as intended. Any Idea or help.

AFAIK it's not possible. But you could create an own logic by using trace to return customized error-messages. This meant using the ErrorMode 0 and querying the ScriptError after each essential load-step. To not cluttering the script too much you could put those logic into a sub-routine similar to this one: Re: TRACE - directly enter an expression which returned the ScriptError and maybe some further results and could also contain an exit script; to break the script on this point.
