Funny computer jokesTroubleshooting Code 800A03F2 – Expected IdentifierIntroduction to Code 800A03F2 When you get Error code 800A03F2 concentrate on the Line: number and especially the Char: number. Once you trace the line and position, you should be able to identify the problem. A wild guess is there is an extra full stop. The Symptoms You GetThe script does not execute as you hoped, instead you get a WSH error message. The Cause of Error 800A03F2Your VBScript contain is missing a character. Note: the clue ‘Source: Microsoft VBScript compilation error’. My point is that ‘compilation error’ and not a ‘runtime error’, means this is a syntax error in your script. Another cause is because VBS does not support the Optional statement for Subs and Functions. See example 3. The Solution to Expected IdentifierThis is a syntax error, therefore check for a missing argument. In my example, Windows Scripting Host is telling us that the problem is at Line: 3, count blank lines and lines with remarks. In this case the Char: number (73), is very useful in tracing the error. Something is wrong with the syntax at the end of the line 3. ‡ Example 1 of Code 800A03F2 errorNote: The Line: 6 Char 34 , .T.) It should be , True) DIM fso, gf
Example 2 of Code 800A03F2 errorWScript.Echo strDriveLetter & " drive is mapped to " & strUncPath. Here is the tiniest of errors, an unwanted full stop (period) after strUncPath.

Example 3 Optional Statement ProblemKindly sent in by Robert Dunham Here, the 800A03F2 is raised because VBS does not support the Optional statement for Subs and Functions and was expecting a valid variable name. Here’s the code sample:
Call echoComment
This error would also be raised for an incorrectly spelled byVal or byRef statement. While this is very similar to your first example, I wanted to point out that this error can happen during declaration as well. The above example would be very common for those who are used to standard VB programming.
