You make a good point actually Gyro, when I first started programming (a little over 3 years ago) most error messages completely stumped me, and it didn't help that sometimes they weren't written in plain english. When I get a compile time error now, if I don't understand it (but I usually do) I go on google and type in the error code which often leads me to a solution on the MSDN site. If I get an error and can't fix it but I'm beginning to tear my hair out, I will post my question on a forum, like this one and have a break for an hour.
When I come back, there might be an answer to my question and if not I do some good coding on one of my other projects as a sort of morale boost.
How do YOU cope with the stress of errors?
