Normally Google finds it for you somewhere, but not this one! If you look in Windows.pas, you'll see this: (* The return value of OLE APIs and methods is an HRESULT. This is not a handle to anything, but is merely a 32-bit value with several fields encoded in the value. The parts of an HRESULT are shown below. HRESULTs are 32 bit values layed out as follows: 3 3 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 +-+-+-+-+-+---------------------+-------------------------------+ |S|R|C|N|r| Facility | Code | +-+-+-+-+-+---------------------+-------------------------------+ where S - Severity - indicates success/fail 0 - Success 1 - Fail (COERROR) R - reserved portion of the facility code, corresponds to NT's second severity bit. C - reserved portion of the facility code, corresponds to NT's C field. N - reserved portion of the facility code. Used to indicate a mapped NT status value. r - reserved portion of the facility code. Reserved for internal use. Used to indicate HRESULT values that are not status values, but are instead message ids for display strings. Facility - is the facility code Code - is the facility's status code *) Your number gives: Severity = 1 (Fail) R = 0 C = 0 N = 0 r = 0 Facility = $4C3 Code = $ED0E Unfortunately this is where I grind to a halt, because $4C3 is a totally unknown facility code. This just doesn't look like a standard HRESULT. Are you sure it's not an internal code that is not meant to escape? Found this useful tool, by the way: http://www.winwonk.com/utils/HRPlus.zip It decodes the HResults for you. It doesn't recognise this one.
