@error

[dazza]

I have run this code:

$all_folders = _FileListToArray($path, $fragment, 1)
msgbox(0, "error", @error)
If @error = 4 then
    exit
EndIf
msgbox(0, "", "shouldn't get here!")

The msgbox returns @error = 4 but the code is not doing the exit; it returns the second message box?

I am at a complete loss why

I have even tried

If @error > 0

But to no avail

I reach for a match and a can of petrol...

#include <File.au3>
$all_folders = _FileListToArray('c:\', '*.zhzgzjkhjjj', 1)
$err = @error
MsgBox(0, "error", @error)
If $err = 4 Then
    Exit
EndIf
MsgBox(0, "", "shouldn't get here!")

That's because the @error returned by MsgBox() was 0. Xenobiologist shows you how to save the error code.

Works a treat. I can now see the light again. I put the can of petrol down. I remove the noose from my neck. I put the Pot Noodle away.
