Thanks for the reply.
If I put WScript.Quit myErrorLevel in my vbs, how do I get that value in my batch? What I'm thinking is that I run my vbs with On Error Resume Next doing my error handling. Then I pass a return code to the batch. If the return code is not good then I take action in the batch...

By testing the ERRORLEVEL special register.
When in a command window type if /?
