Since the targets(*Cancl, *Detl, *Getin, etc) are places in the cycle
flowchart the the control branches to,   
I would rather see    *NEXT  instead of *CONTINUE.      Meaning GOTO (like
the *GETIN and the rest do)
the NEXT statement after the error happened.   That would allow us the most
control(inconjuction with Jon's 
suggestion of an E extender on the Opcode) of where the logic flow goes.
