aey,

In JAL, does the OnErrorGoto statement work the same way as it does in VB. In VB, if I define the “OnError Goto” any time an error is encountered VB goes to the error routine.

Does the 24x7 JAL “OnErrorGoto” work similar to the VB "OnError GOTO". Or is it specific to the section of code immediately following the statement?

IF I define a statement like this:

OnErrorGoTo ErrorRoutine

Block1:
statement-block1
Block2:
statement-block2
Block 3:
statement-block3
Block5:
statement-block5

ErrorRoutine:
Case 1
….
Case 10
endcase

Will 24x7 OnErrorGoto catch an error generated in Block5 and jump to the ErrorRoutine?

Yes, it is similar to VB implementation. This setting is active until some other OnError... statement is executed which overrides the previous setting. I really mean executed, not just coded somewhere below in script.

Okay, thank you.

The problem we are having was our script. It is too big. I think this is why the OnErrorGoto was not working the way we waned.
