Sylvain:

What about:

okToGo% = 0
 LONG IF...
  okToGo% = okToGo% + 1
 XELSE
  deepDooDoo% = _condition1failed
 END IF

 LONG IF...
  okToGo% = okToGo% + 1
 XELSE
  deepDooDoo% = _condition2failed
 END IF

 LONG IF...
  okToGo% = okToGo% + 1
 XELSE
  deepDooDoo% = _condition3failed
 END IF

 LONG IF okToGo% = 3
 ' all conditions met, do your stuff
 XELSE
 'at least one condition failed....
 'pass the value of deepDooDoo% to an error handling routine...
 END IF

Cheers,
