First things first. WScript.Quit DOES NOT WORK! I have no idea
Vbscript Error Handling
what "WScript" is but it clearly has nothing to do with client side scripting for a web page. I have seen this "WScript" thing somewhere before and it just produces errors (maybe obsolete or something) so please do not suggest it... Anyway... all I wish to do is completely stop the script in the event of a condition not being met. Obviously I don't want "Exit Sub" because the code would then carry on running if that sub is embedded! I am aware of the "stop" command
Vbscript On Error Exit Sub
but I am under the impression that it is only used for debugging. Hopefully a very simple question. UPDATE and Conclusion: Before I close this subject I will just expand a little on what I was trying to do... I had a number of main subs that were being started by a button click. In order to make it so that I did not have to edit each individual sub I embedded a universal sub within each one that did a preliminary check. Part of that preliminary check was to stop the program in the case of an incorrect user input. If an error was detected I wanted to halt all progress from that point on. An "exit sub" would obviously just skip the rest of that preliminary sub and the main sub would carry on executing. In the end it was just a case of writing in an error flag (that is checked in the main subs) or incorporating the error condition operation in each main procedure. In that way you exit the main sub and the problem is solved. It was not laziness - I just wanted to reduce the amount of code. Thank you for the responses anyway. vbscript share|improve this question edited Nov 22 '12 at 21:04 asked Nov 21 '12 at 23:40 Cheesus Toast 5141717 It would be equitable if people read the question first before putting a -1. Yes, I have researched - if the answer was available then I would not be here would I? –Cheesus Toast Nov 21 '12 at

Blog Learn about Windows PowerShell How Can I Stop a Script Partway Through? ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ August 30, 2004 by ScriptingGuy1 // 0 Comments 0 0 0 Hey, Scripting Guy! Is there a way to make a script stop itself if certain vbscript on error conditions aren’t met? Like say I’m going to copy files to a remote computer, but then the remote computer isn’t available. Can I write code that tells the script to just go ahead and quit at that point?-- WK, Palo Alto, CA Hey, WK. This is one of the easiest questions we’ve ever had to answer: you can stop a script at any time by using a single line of code:Wscript.Quit That’s it; as soon as that line is executed, the script stops right then and there. So how would you actually make use of this command? Well, let’s take your scenario, in which you try to connect to a remote computer and you fail; in that case, an error will be generated. You can then check the value of the Err object and if it’s anything other than 0 (0 means no error occurred) you can exit the script right then and there:If Err <> 0 Then Wscript.Quit End If Or maybe before quitting you might want to echo a message explaining why the script quit:If Err <> 0 Then Wscript.Echo "Unable to contact remote computer; " & _ "the script will now quit." Wscript.Quit End If For more information about the Quit method, see this portion of the Windows Scrip
