# Errors Property

A read-only property that returns a reference to the Errors collection that is associated with a Microsoft Office InfoPath 2003 form.

expression.Errors

expression Required. An expression that returns a reference to an XDocument object.

## Security Level

2: Can be accessed only by forms running in the same domain as the currently open form, or by forms that have been granted cross-domain permissions.

## Remarks

The Errors collection is associated with a form's underlying XML document so that when an error occurs, it occurs within the XML document. After you set a reference to the Errors collection, you can access all of its properties and methods for managing the errors within an InfoPath form.

## Example

In the following example, the Errors property of the XDocument object is used to return the count of the number or errors and then display that value in a message box:

    var intErrors;

    intErrors = XDocument.Errors.Count;
    XDocument.UI.Alert("Total number of errors: " + intErrors);
