&ERRABORT 

Syntax 

&ERRABORT {condition}

where:

condition             boolean number

Description 

&ERRABORT enables or disables the aborting of a script if a syntax error
in an executable command line is encountered.  Condition will be 0 to
disable aborting and 1 to enable aborting.  The default setting is 1.  If
set to 0, and a syntax error is found, the script carries on wherever
possible.  Only errors with script file commands will be reported, errors
in HP Desk commands included in a script will be picked up by HP Desk,
when the script is run.  Active functions can be used in conjunction with
this command.

Example 

     &ERRABORT 0
     &<ACTIVEFN <PROMPT "Directive &" "Exit">>
     &BACK 1

If you are using <ACTIVEFN> to make sure a script command works as
expected before you use it, &ERRABORT 0 will cause the script to report
an error if you make a mistake in the syntax of the <ACTIVEFN> command,
but will not terminate the script.
