This batch SQL command instructs the system to process errors without pausing for user acknowledgment.
The syntax is:
NOSTOP;
The NOSTOP command must be placed immediately after the query on which you want it to start taking effect. Once a NOSTOP command is executed, it will remain in effect for the rest of the script, or until a ERRSTOP command is encountered. Together, the ERRSTOP and NOSTOP commands can be used to selectively enable or disable error processing at certain points in the batch file.
For example:
UPDATE employee SET com = 0 WHERE dept = "2020"; NOSTOP; --Do not stop on error UPDATE customer SET balance=0 WHERE balance > 0; ERRSTOP; --Stop on error
This example directs the system to ignore errors that occur when updating the EMPLOYEE table, but to stop on errors that occur when updating the CUSTOMER table.
