Hi, Kevin.

Trap for error #2462 in your error handler, and then add appropriate logic
for skipping that section of the Form.  Here's an example:

'  * * * * Start Code * * * *

Public Function fixForm(srcFrm As Form) As Boolean

   On Error GoTo ErrHandler

   Dim sSectName As String
   Dim nInvalidSection As Long
   Dim idx As Long
   Dim fSuccess As Boolean

   Const MAX_SECTION As Long = 4

   nInvalidSection = 0                                     ' Init.

   For idx = 0 To MAX_SECTION
       sSectName = srcFrm.Section(idx).Name     ' Check whether section is
valid.

       
'--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       '  Determine whether the current section being checked isn't in the
       ' source form.
       
'--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       
       If (nInvalidSection > 0) Then                     ' Must have
"Detail" section = 0.
           nInvalidSection = 0                              '  Reset.

           '  Do whatever.
       End If
   Next idx

   fSuccess = True

CleanUp:

   fixForm = fSuccess

   Exit Function
   
ErrHandler:
   
   If (Err.Number = 2462) Then            ' Section # invalid.
       nInvalidSection = idx
       Err.Clear
       Resume Next
   Else
       MsgBox "Error in fixForm( ) in " & Application.CurrentObjectName & _
               " module." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "Error #" & _
               Err.Number & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & Err.Description
       Err.Clear
       fSuccess = False
       GoTo CleanUp
   End If

End Sub

'  * * * * End Code * * * *

HTH.
