-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Wendy Smoak Sent: 09 October 2004 00:46 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [U2] Syntax for WRITE ... ON ERROR
From the manual:WRITE Syntax WRITE expr {ON | TO} [file.var,] record.ID.expr [ON ERROR statements]
There's no 'END', so how does it know what belongs to 'ON ERROR' and what's
just the next line of the program?
I need to put an IF statement in the ON ERROR clause, to check for the STATUS()=10 and do something different if that happens.
A quick test shows that I only get one line for ON ERROR-- code on a second
line beneath it gets executed whether the write succeeds or not (though I
didn't try an IF block).
Any advice? A GOSUB statement, or ??
