Post Err.Number & Message into Memo Field

strSQL2 = "UPDATE tblAPList SET Active = No, Failed = Yes, ErrMsg = Err.Number & '(' & " & Chr(34) & Err.Description & Chr(34) & ")" & _
                " WHERE tblAPList.ApNo= '" & gApNo & "'"

                " WHERE tblAPList.ApNo= '" & gApNo & "'"
        curdb.Execute strSQL2

Here is my code as is -   I could use your assistance in cleaning up my code.

To restate the purpose of my code is:

I am attempting to export several types of objects- based on a table contain the list of objects & object Type from 1 database into another -   The objects have been import into the ExportTool.mdb, Then repeat this process for a selected list of databases.

My current issues is

1.  The object does not exist in the receiving database, how do I modify my code to handle the import/export of this object.  ie. table is new to the receiving database I need to add it.

2.  Logging error handling - Update a table with the actual error number & message,  then allowing for the code to continue on thru the remaining items in the list of databases.

3. Clean my error handling code to allow for moving to the next item in list.  I found the code for

4. Compact & compile the receiving database after export has been processed.
Unsure how to implement this code:

Still having issues with my error handling.  I want to be able to write to a log all error handling issues, and also if Error happens, then to clear the error and resume the code to continue looping thru the list.

Also how do Transfer database object when the object does not exists in the receiving database?

ExportDBObjects_Error:
    If Err.Number = 3024 Or Err.Number = 3011 Then
        strSQL4 = "UPDATE tblAPList SET Active = No, Failed = Yes, ErrMsg = " & _
                    Err.Number & "'" & Err.Description & "'" & _
                        " WHERE tblAPList.ApNo= '" & gApNo & "'"
        curdb.Execute strSQL4

        Err.Clear
        Resume Next

    Else
               strSQL4 = "UPDATE tblAPList SET Active = No, Failed = Yes, ErrMsg = " & _
                    Err.Number & "'" & Err.Description & "'" & _
                        " WHERE tblAPList.ApNo= '" & gApNo & "'"
        curdb.Execute strSQL4
        
        Err.Clear
        Resume Next
           
'    End If
End Sub
