I want to check if a query returns a proper recordset or if is something wrong (a column not found, database not found e.t.c).

I have the following setting fro my query :
strSQL = "select something from table1"
Set objRS = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
objRS.Open strSQL, Conn

How can check if the query is valid so to enter an IF statement so :
If (query = False) Then
Response.Write("There is wrong with the query!")
Else

..... All the things i wanna do when the query is correct
End If

So not to have the annoying white screen message but a proper common user friendly message ???

You should check Err.Number<>0
