This is not strange. All it is doing is defining an (exit) tag for the
subroutine.
Yes, both CAB & GOTO's must (if  RESULT field defined) reference a TAG or an
ENDSR TAG

Its the same as:

      WRTR99      TAG
               ENDSR

Your code is slightly odd in that the line: FIELDA           CABEQ
WRTR99
will not compile as the Factor 2 filed is mandatory (WRTR99 is the Result field
TAG).
