To abruptly end a vb script when user clicks on "Esc" button!!

Here is my code written:-

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.Run " "
WScript.Sleep 5000
for i=1 to 20
WshShell.SendKeys "^{HOME}"
WshShell.SendKeys "{END}"
WScript.Sleep 50
WshShell.SendKeys " or "
WScript.Sleep 50
WshShell.SendKeys "{DELETE}"
WshShell.SendKeys "{END}"
next

Result of this code basically add's "or" onto any active window! This was written to help me in adding the text "or" in between two values. I run this code and place a notepad as active window which has values. but if i click and open any other window, this code continues untill " i = 20 " but i have to exit from this code if user("I") clicks on "Esc" button. Can somebody provide me solution to it.
I know there is wshShell.Quit....and i truely dont know how to use it!!

I'm not aware of any WSH capability to monitor keystrokes, so what you're asking probably can't be done.

But i badly need a solution for it!!

how about getasynckeystate!! will this work??

Both VBScript and JScript cannot call Win API functions by themselves. However, a third-party ActiveX DLL (that exposes an object that you can instantiate in VBScript) might be able to do it for you. You may want to Google that option.

If you don't mind converting your VBScript code to a more capable scripting language, then you might want to try AutoIt or AutoHotkey.
