Answer / ravi_kanakam

When error occurs you can take screenshot of the desktop
and send the bitmap to result file.

if error occurs then

Desktop.CaptureBitmap("c:\bitmap.bmp")

Reporter.ReportEvent micFail, "Error Name", "<<img
src="c:\bitmap.bmp>"

end if

The above code will send the screen shot to the Result File.

Answer / guest

Hey I don't think that it is possible.
After all QTP is automation tool...it doesn't think like
human brain...you have to feed it all the scenarios,then
only it will follow the instructions.

Go to Tools>Recovery scenario manager : here you can give
the instructions to QPT to respond to errors.
