Robert,<br>
<br>
your suggestion is exactly the code that I tried before I wrote the
first message in this thread.<br>
I tried:<br>
<i>return tostring(false) </i><br>
<i>return false</i><i><br>
</i><i>return "Cancel"</i><br>
<br>
When I do this<br>
<i>local success, msg = finenv.ExecuteLuaScriptItem(item)</i><i><br>
</i>gets me:<br>
success == true<br>
msg == nil<br>
<br>
I only get <i>success==false </i>with<i> error(...)</i><br>
(tested on Windows/Fin27/RGP Lua 0.65 only)<br>

<div>For your purposes, I think the best choice might be simply
to return a message. Or just return tostring(false) and then
compare the string returned to that, if you don't care about
the message.<br>

<div> Hm, I still didn't succeed.<br>
<br>
When I throw an error message in a lua script with:<br>
<i>error("Cancel",2)</i><br>
then this a user dialog always pops up in RGP Lua/Windows:<br>
<img src="cid:part1.zI0IoBot.U5C3yTG8@angermueller.com"
alt="" class=""><br>
<br>
Is there a way to not show this dialog in RGP Lua?<br>
(Tested in Fin27.2/Windows 10/RGP Lua 0.65)<br>
<br>
This happens without<i> finenv.ExecuteLuaScriptItem</i> ,
it's just the <i>error(...) </i>that leads to the popup.<i><br>
</i><br>
The same code in JW Lua doesn't give a dialog that pops up.<br>
<br>
Or does anyone have an example code of how to end a lua
script so that it passes a "not successful" to <i>finenv.ExecuteLuaScriptItem
</i>without showing any error messages.<br>

It is not the same behavior as a command line tool. As
for the 'error' function, it will close the Lua state of
the called script, but that would appear to be what you
want anyway. Otherwise you can return a string that will
be returned in the second return value of
ExecuteLuaScriptItem.<br>
