Command to restart script?

[BrokenDynasty]

I have a 300 or so line script with a tangle of If/Else statements. I would like some of the Else's to instruct the script to start over again, how can I do this in the most simple way? Thanks in advance.

Put it in a loop and cycle the loop for those statements you want to start over. Once you get out of your conditinal testing block, exit the loop. Example:

While 1
  $number = InputBox("Input A Number", "Enter a num", "0")
  $number = Number($number)
  If $number = 0 Then
    ContinueLoop
  ElseIf $number = 1 Then
    MsgBox(0, "", "You entered 1")
  ElseIf $number = 2 Then
    MsgBox(0, "", "You entered 2")
    ContinueLoop
  Else
    MsgBox(0, "", "You entered " & $number)
  EndIf
  ExitLoop
WEnd

Look at case in the help file

It really helped me out a lot when I started using it

Does ContinueLoop exit the If statement the script is in and continue within the While Statement, to the next conditional?

As soon as the ContinueLoop command is hit, it will cycle to the top of the loop. It will also iterate the count when dealing with a For loop. Note that when using a While loop this will test the condition before execution of the next loop cycle, but it will not for a Do-Until loop because the conditional testing comes at the end, not the top.

I thought ContinueLoop actually goes to the bottom of the loop, which triggers incrementing for For or testing for Until. It then goes to the top of the loop and tests for For and While before going back into the loop. Let me see.

$x = 1
$msg = ""
Do
   $msg = $msg & ", " & $x 
   $x = $x + 1
   If $x > 5 And $x < 15 Then ContinueLoop
Until $x > 10
$msg = StringTrimLeft($msg, 2)
MsgBox(0, "Testing", $msg)

If ContinueLoop does not trigger the test, then the result in $msg should go beyond 10. The result I get is:

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Therefore Do-Until is tested on ContinueLoop.
