Batch script control

raven — Tue, 11 Feb 2025 14:27:37 GMT

Hi Dave,

Is it possible to stop a batch script after a particular response is given in one of the scripts it calls?

For example, in the following batch script, if a particular response (i.e., "0") is given to a question in script1, then the batch should stop and not run script2 and script3.

[code]<batch>
/ file="script1.iqx"
/ file="script2.iqx"
/ file="script3.iqx"
</batch>[/code]

Thanks!

You use the script.abort() function in script 1 to do this.
