This may be a bit of a problem for two reasons:
1. Not everyone subscribes
2. It's an article on RPG IV exception handlers

The original poster was interested in RPG III.  Of course, I fanned the
flames there by posting RPG IV source to tempt him, but the only "new"
feature I used in that source is long variable names.  It will convert
easily enough to RPG III.

I would bet that it would be a copyright violation to post the article here,
but re-prints are probably available from their web site (www.news400.com)
The fact that we have to pay for it probably irks some people, but at least
it isn't a secret!
