No, the error check should be done only once, generally at the top of the event.

Let's take an example (which is the way things should be done)
Code:
On *:SockOpen:Name:{
  If $sockerr { Echo -st - Error on $sockname - | Return }
  Var %s = SockWrite -n $sockname
  %s NICK SomeNickname
  %s USER something something something :Just Testing
}


Of course, something like the following is useless.
Code:
On *:SockOpen:Name:{
  If $sockerr { Echo -st - Error on $sockname - | Return }
  Var %s = SockWrite -n $sockname
  %s NICK SomeNickname
  If $sockerr { Echo -st - Error on $sockname - | Return }
  %s USER something something something :Just Testing
  If $sockerr { Echo -st - Error on $sockname - | Return }
}

Because, in the case of an error, the socket is automatically closed by mIRC, so a unique check will do it. smile

NB: Note the use of "Var %s = SockWrite -n $sockname", which is not a compulsory method. I like to do that when I'll have to do a series of /sockwrite. It then neatens the source. It's only a matter of taste and aesthetics. smile
