Control Flow Statements
By default, VBScript sequentially moves (flows) through the script from statement to statement. As is
typical with virtually all high-level programming languages, control flow statements can alter this flow by
branching to other code sections based upon logic conditions, inputs, errors, etc.
One of the most commonly used control flow statement is the If..Then..Else statement. This control
flow statement takes the following format:
{simple format} If condition Then statement(s) [Else elsestatement(s) ]
{block format}
If condition Then
[statement(s)]
[ElseIf condition-n Then
[elseifstatement(s)]] . . .
[Else
[elsestatement(s)]]
End If
The condition can be a boolean constant or boolean variable, or a numeric or string expression that
evaluates to True or False.
Refer to the Appendix for a detail description of these functions.
