<p>I want to use VBScript to catch errors and log them (ie on error "log something") then resume the next line of the script.</p>

<p>For example,</p>

<pre>
On Error Resume Next
'Do Step 1
'Do Step 2
'Do Step 3
</pre>

<p>When an error occurs on step 1, I want it to log that error (or perform other custom functions with it) then resume at step 2. Is this possible? and how can I implement it?</p>

<p>EDIT: Can I do something like this?</p>

<pre>
On Error Resume myErrCatch
'Do step 1
'Do step 2
'Do step 3

myErrCatch:
'log error
Resume Next
</pre>

VBScript has no notion of throwing or catching exceptions, but the runtime provides a global Err object that contains the results of the last operation performed. You have to explicitly check whether the Err.Number property is non-zero after each operation.
```
```
On Error Resume Next

DoStep1

If Err.Number <> 0 Then
  WScript.Echo "Error in DoStep1: " & Err.Description
  Err.Clear
End If

DoStep2

If Err.Number <> 0 Then
  WScript.Echo "Error in DoStop2:" & Err.Description
  Err.Clear
End If

'If you no longer want to continue following an error after that block's completed,
'call this.
On Error Goto 0
```
```
The "On Error Goto [label]" syntax is supported by Visual Basic and Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), but VBScript doesn't support this language feature so you have to use On Error Resume Next as described above.
