Thanks a lot for the help. Works beautifully.

Sorry, but I'm afraid I have to object to the Close Request (not because I mind sharing points, but because the suggested accepted answer would not answer the question correctly).<br />
<br />
Qlemo,<br />
the initial question was <i>[...] a security warning comes which say's do you want this program to make changes to your computer. [...] But if the user Clicks No a script error occurs. Is there anyway we can end the script with a custom message.</i><br />
<br />
This is the UAC prompt - and a &quot;No&quot; to an UAC prompt will not be caught by a simple bWaitOnReturn, but result in a script error, without the possibility to display a custom message (try it, for example, with regedit.exe using an administrative user in a non-elevated shell). So implementing the &quot;On Error Resume Next&quot; is not &quot;<i>adding more flesh to [your] code</i>&quot;, it's a requirement.

I didn't read the script error as being an UAC prompt, but likely it is.

If the OP will not provide anything, my adjusted suggestion is<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;<a href="https:#a41773020" rel="ugc">https:#a41773020</a> &nbsp; 125<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;<a href="https:#a41773054" rel="ugc">https:#a41773054</a> &nbsp; 375<br />
as oBdA is probably correct regarding UAC prompts, but my code is still part of the solution.

I have a script which installs programs. Everything works fine. But if the user cancels the installation a script error occurs. Is there anyway we can end the script with a custom message.<br />
<br />
Set objShell = CreateObject(&quot;Wscript.Shel<wbr />l&quot;)<br />
strPath = objShell.CurrentDirectory<br />
Set objShell = CreateObject(&quot;WScript.Shel<wbr />l&quot;) <br />

Once the program is executed a security warning comes which say's do you want this program to make changes to your computer. if the user selects yes the script exits and the program installs and everything is fine.<br />

Catch Cancellation error from objShell.Run

A scripting language is a programming language that supports scripts, programs written for a special run-time environment that automate the execution of tasks that could alternatively be executed one-by-one by a human operator. Scripting languages are often interpreted (rather than compiled). Primitives are usually the elementary tasks or API calls, and the language allows them to be combined into more complex programs. Environments that can be automated through scripting include software applications, web pages within a web browser, the shells of operating systems (OS), embedded systems, as well as numerous games. A scripting language can be viewed as a domain-specific language for a particular environment; in the case of scripting an application, this is also known as an extension language.

Scripting Languages

VBScript (Visual Basic Scripting Edition) is an interpreted scripting language developed by Microsoft that is modeled on Visual Basic, but with some important differences. VBScript is commonly used for automating administrative and other tasks in Windows operating systems (by means of the Windows Script Host) and for server-side scripting in ASP web applications. It is also used for client-side scripting in Internet Explorer, specifically in intranet web applications.
