Re: Is this the Free-Format that we asked for?

Richard,

You *will* be able to code a goto in RPG V.

C            Goto       There

That was not taken away from you at all.  You can still do that.  You just
can not do it in freeformat.  It wasn't taken away, it just wasn't *added*

Regards,

Jim Langston
