Answer 1

In VBScript there are two error states (three in other VBs).

On Error Goto 0

vbscript handles errors. Your program crashes on errors.

On Error Resume Next

VBScript sets the err object but doesn't raise an error. You are required to put after every line that may raise an error

If err.number <> 0 then 
    FreakoutAndFixTheError
    err.clear
    wscript.quit 'if you can't fix
End If

In VB6 and VBA there is also

On Error Goto LineNumber (or a label)
