Hi all:

I have a question regarding what FM means when they say 'Exit Script Step exits sub/external scripts and returns control to main script.'

Do they conside the 'Main Script' to be whatever script is one-level outside the currently running script, or do they mean you jump back to the 'outermost' level? Here's what I mean:

'---- Level #1 ---------

Do Something Cool

Do Something Else Cool

If [something happens uncool]

...'----- Level #2 --------

...Make it better

...Make it even better

...If [it's really better now]

......'----- Level #3 --------

......Wow

......great

......Exit Script **************

...End If

Else

...Sorry, you broke it!

End If

... would the Exit Script in 'Level #3' (for lack of a better term) return you to what was happening in Level #2 subscript, or would you jump all the way back out to whatever happens next in Level #1?

The definition seems to say you would jump back one level, but in practice it seems to me to be going all the way out to my outermost script. But I don't know if it's SUPPOSED to or if I have screwed something else up.

Thanks

Kurt

Are your Levels sub-scripts or If steps? Exit Script returns control to the calling script/sub-script for the current script and acts like a Halt Script if used in the main script. So an Exit Script in an If step in a main script (regardless of how 'deep' it may be) aborts the entire script.

Just for clarification, a sub-script is one that is called via Perform Script within the main script or another sub-script.

BINGO! Thanks for the clarification.
