RE: No Subroutines (was Re: Debugging many subprocedures)

IMHO that's a good way to code a procedure.  You don't end up with all sorts of
conditioned code to get to the one RETURN at the end of the procedure.

I agree why dig through a pile of nested if's just to find out you want to 
return???

Well, LEAVESR really does a branch to ENDSR so he's correct about putting
the breakpoint on ENDSR.  You're right about being able to use GOTO out of
the subroutine.  One of the benefits for using a procedure is you can only
normally exit the procedure using RETURN.

I don't understand Joe's problem with multiple RETURNs in a procedure.  IMHO
that's a good way to code a procedure.  You don't end up with all sorts of
conditioned code to get to the one RETURN at the end of the procedure.
