ok so i know that this is a long script but i only need help with a way to reset the execution point a certain line of the script. i have commented where i need to do this, about 3/4 of the way down the script. but, if anyone would like to give advice to streamline this or if i have some syntax wrong, i wont object to the help haha!

ok so here it is:

Code:
on write_extension_error(thatData, logLocation, append_data)
	try
		set the logLocation to the logLocation as text
		set the openLog to ¬
			open for access file logLocation with write permission
		if append_data is false then ¬
			set eof the openLog to 0
		write thatData to the openLog starting at eof
		close access the openLog
		return true
	on error
		try
			close access file logLocation
		end try
		return false
	end try
end write_extension_error

on removeFilesh(rmLocation)
	try
		do shell script "rm '" & rmLocation & "'"
	end try
end removeFilesh

on write_to_file(this_data, target_file, append_data) -->SubRoutine for Log File
	try
		set the target_file to the target_file as text
		set the open_target_file to ¬
			open for access file target_file with write permission
		if append_data is false then ¬
			set eof the open_target_file to 0
		write this_data to the open_target_file starting at eof
		close access the open_target_file
		return true
	on error
		try
			close access file target_file
		end try
		return false
	end try
end write_to_file

set this_folder to choose folder with prompt "Choose Source Location"
set jpgToTifExten to 0

You can use the exit statement to get out of a repeat before it's complete, but here you are inside two nested repeats, so that will only get you out of the first one. What you could do is set a variable to something (like for example "set done to true"), then exit the innermost repeat and check for done being equal to true. If it is, you do another exit to escape the outer repeat loop which should land execution at the end where you want it. If done is still false that means your loop didn't hit the part that wants to exit and the loop will continue. You should probably set done to false before you start the loop just to be neat about it.
