Using On Error statements and global status flag variables should do the
trick.

Subject: RE: atomic operations in VBScript
Hi Doug,
Oh, for instance, get some info out of a particular dictionary object. I
test if it exists, and then when I go to get info out of it, I get an
error
because it no longer exists, because some other event handler has removed
it
(as it should); but these types of conflicts where objects are created and
modified and deleted by more than one thread really could use some atomic
control, and I was wondering if anyone had already solved this issue.
It's not always dictionary objects, it another example two different
threads
need access to a single resource in a third com automation server; each
one
needs it for a few statements, before it can then be released to be used
by
another thread. without some atomic control here, they could end up
interfering with each other's use of it.
thanks.
Chip

What specifically are you wanting to do atomically?

Hi all,
I need to coordinate some activity between various event handlers and
timer
generated events in a VBScript. I was wondering if there was any way of
having atomic operations in a VBScript to do this? any other suggestions?
thanks.
