How to code an If... OR statement in VB Script

[JohnBates]

Hello VBScript experts -

I am working with an ASP page.

Need to perform a task If any of a group of values are "on"..

If blnMarcam = "on" OR
blnJDE = "on" OR

I'm getting a syntax error in the above If statement...

Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a03ea'

Syntax error

If blnMarcam = "on" OR
----------------------^

I have also tried ||

So...........how can I construct the If statement to check for multiple conditions ?

Thanks for any help.

Couple of things to try:-
1. Is the comparison valid ie. ="on"
2. Try with AND instead of OR see if it works.
3. Try Using the SELECT statement.

Hope this helps

Thanks AgentM -

I made the clasical syntax error.

I had: If blnMarcam = "on" OR
blnJDE = "on" Then

I corrected it this way:

If blnMarcam = "on" OR blnJDE = "on" Then

or I could have used a continuation _ after the OR I suppose.

I've got lots of programming experience but I'm new at using the scripting languages. Sorry for the bother. John
