How?

I'm trying to detect this specific exception

       raise EInvalidOperation.Create(sCannotFocus);

(where sCannotFocus is defined in LCLStrConsts).

I tried

   if E is EInvalidOperation then
      if E.message=sCannotFocus

but it doesn't work (sCannotFocus holds the original, not the 
translated, string).

Bye
