ABORT

Syntax	ABORT {message#}{,"parameter"{,"parameter"..}} ABORT {error message string}
Category	BASIC
Type	Statement
Description	immediately stops program execution and unconditionally returns to the TCL command prompt. The "abort" statement specifies an abnormal end and can appear anywhere in the program. The "error.message#" parameter is the item-id of the desired message in the "dm,messages," file to be output. The parameters are the values required by the message. If the "string" form is used, the message string is displayed on the screen and placed in the "dm,messages," file. The "abort" statement is similiar to the "stop" statement, except the "abort" statement also terminates execution of any macro or PROC which might have called the program containing the "abort" statement and aborts the FlashBASIC program. The "abort" statement automatically generates error message "[b1] run-time abort at line 'n'".

Example	open "invoices" to invoice.file else abort 201,"invoices" If "invoices" can not be opened, the program aborts with error message 201 and passes in the string "invoices". This causes the program to stop with the message '"invoices" is not a file name'. In this case, both [b201] and [b1] error messages are displayed.
