Catching Import Export Errors

I believe that Status(CurrentError) returns 1 when a user cancels an action. So far the only FileMaker dialog that I've encountered that this doesn't work with is the Ask User to Disconnect dialog that appears when you switch MultiUser to Off.

At any rate, I just did a preliminary test. Place If...End If immediately after your Import Records script step and test for CurrentError=1.

Note: if Allow User Abort is On, then if the user aborts the import FileMaker will treat it as if the user has cancelled the script.

I know when there's no records from a find, you can use Status(CurrentError) = 401 and then do what you want from there.

But what about for Exporting and Importing? Meaning, if you have a script with an Import or Export command in the middle of it, but during the Import/Export the user cancels (during where they are setting up the layout order) how can I catch this error and stop the script there instead of continuing it?
