For example, On Error Resume Next 'Do Step 1 'Do Step 2 'Do Step 3 When an error occurs on step 1, I want it to log that error (or perform other custom functions with it) then resume at step 2. Is this possible? and how can I implement it? EDIT: Can I do something like this?

This is why I always used Javascript when I could get away with it. –wcm Oct 1 '08 at 14:23 add a comment| 2 Answers 2 active oldest votes up vote 102 down vote accepted VBScript has no notion of throwing or catching exceptions, but the runtime provides a global Err object that contains the reuslts of the last operation performed. You have to explicitly check whether the Err.Number property is non-zero after each operation. On Error Resume Next DoStep1 If Err.Number <> 0 Then WScript.Echo "Error in DoStep1: " & Err.Description Err.Clear End If DoStep2 If Err.Number <> 0 Then WScript.Echo "Error in DoStop2:" & Err.Description Err.Clear End If 'If you no longer want to continue following an error after that block's completed, 'call this. On Error Goto 0 The "On Error Goto [label]" syntax is supported by Visual Basic and Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), but VBScript doesn't support this language feature so you have to use On Error Resume Next as described above. share|improve this answer edited Oct 1 '08 at 14:36 answered Oct 1 '08 at 14:11 Dylan Beattie 33.3k2095154 9 :( ...

VBScript Constants C. Operators Index Colophon Error Handling Error handling does not involve finding errors in error handling your scripts. Instead, use error handling techniques to allow your program to continue executing even though a potentially fatal error has occurred. Ordinarily, all runtime errors that are generated by the VBScript engine are fatal, since execution of the current script is halted when the error occurs. Error handling allows you to inform the user of the problem and either halt execution of the program or, if it is prudent, continue executing the program.The On Error error handling vbs Resume Next StatementThere are two main elements to error handling in VBScript. The first is the On Error statement, which informs the VBScript engine of your intention to handle errors yourself, rather than to allow the VBScript engine to display a typically uninformative error message and halt the program. This is done by inserting a statement like the following at the start of a procedure:On Error Resume NextThis tells the VBScript engine that, should an error occur, you want it to continue executing the program starting with the line of code which directly follows the line in which the error occurred. For example, in the simple WSH script:On Error Resume Next x = 10 y = 0 z = x / y Alert za “Cannot divide by Zero” error is generated on the fourth line of code because the value of y is 0. But because you’ve placed the On Error statement in line 1, program execution continues with line 5. The problem with this is that when an error is generated, the user is unaware of it; the only indication that an error has occurred is the blank Alert box (from line 5) that’s displayed for the user.TipA particular On Error statement is valid until another On Error statement in the line of execution is encountered. This means that if Function A c
of system administration. However in doing this I came across a gap in the existing Microsoft documentation and in many of the VBscripting books available(1) . None seem to give a clear and coherent explanation of how error processing works in VBscript. I think that I’m still a competent VBscript programmer, yet as I dug deeper I found some features that surprised me and that most of our script coders knew even less about this than I did! However, if you think that you already understand how error handling works in VBscript, then try your knowledge on the following example. Look at the code and write down the error codes that it outputs up to the point where it fails, then compare your list to the answers at the end of this paper(5). I might warn you that I have yet to find anyone who gets it 100% right on the first attempt. On Error Resume Next ' Note that 1/0 generates error 11 -- division by zero ' Note that a(2) generates error 9 -- subscript out of range a = Array (0,1) b = 1/a(0) : Wscript.Echo "(a) = ", Err.Number Err.Clear c = a(2) : Wscript.Echo "(b) = ", Err.Number b = 1/c : Wscript.Echo "(c) = ", Err.Number b = 1/a(2) : Wscript.Echo "(d) = ", Err.Number Wscript.Echo "(e) =", b , Err.Number Wscript.Echo "(f) = ", a(2), Err.Number b = a(0): Wscript.Echo "(g) = ", Err.Number Blah a, 2, true, false : Wscript.Echo "(h) = ", Err.Number Blah a, 2, false, true : Wscript.Echo "(i) = ", Err.Number Blah a, 2, false, false : Wscript.Echo "(j) = ", Err.Number Blah a, 1, true, false : Wscript.Echo "Overall Status =", Err.Number Sub Blah(a, i, trap, cont) If trap Then On Error Goto 0 If cont Then On Error Resume Next b = a(i) c = 1/b End Sub So this paper is really essential reading for anyone who uses VBscript for the automation of server or client administration, ASPs or any other purpose. It provides documentation and guidance on how to code to avoid the pitfalls whilst utilizing the
