You would still need On Error Resume Next to accomplish. I prefer to wrap in functions each bit so I have the effectiveness of a GOTO by being able to jump out of points return the error and have error logic (works in VBScript just takes a bit of work covering sometimes). Just make sure you only use it in conditions you specifically want to trap and handle and make sure you GOTO 0 at you earliest convience. You don't want your code getting out of hand because of the RESUME NEXT condition, I have seen that happen so many times.
