Need help stopping an applescript


  • Subject: Need help stopping an applescript

I have a script I am writing I need some help with.
The first part of the script does a check on the owner name of the machine.
What I want to do is to stop the script from proceeding any further if I get
a valid check on the owner name.

tell application "Finder"
set my_name to owner name of (machine environment)
if my_name is "Admin" then

end if
end tell

tell application "Desktop Printer Manager"
delete every desktop printer
tell application "Finder"
set myEther to ethernet address of (machine environment)


What syntax is needed for me to stop this script if my_name is "Admin"?
I only want the script to proceed further down if my_name is not "Admin".
