You need to place an On Error Goto EndLabel on the line *before* the 
statement accepting cancel.  So, for instance, in displaying a dialog
box you would have
<dialog definition>
...
On Error Goto EndLabelName
Dialog Dlg
On Error Goto 0
...
Statements when not cancelled
...
EndLabelName 'Marks the end of the macro
End Sub

You might be interested to know that Microsoft is giving away a short (170)
page introduction to WordBASIC called Using WordBASIC.
Call 1-800-426-9400 and ask for the WordBASIC Binder for the PC (there is 
also one for the Mac, be specific), part number 059-050-574.  Not every
operator is up on this promotion:  but be assured, the first copy of 
Using WordBASIC is free.  Additional copies are 15.00.

Also, there is a new addition of the Technical Reference.
