Introduction

Unconditionally branches to a specified screen name or label within a macro or menu.

How to use

Format : BACKTO <LABEL NAME> BACKTO <SCREEN NAME>

The label may consist of up to 16 characters, and must be present in the current macro/menu or an error will result. Labels are denoted by using the special char ":" (colon). The screen name must have been defined within the current or an ancestor of the current macro/menu as part of a !SCREEN command. The screen name may consist of up to 16 characters. If the name is not a known screen name in the list of screens traversed in the current session, the name is treated as a local macro label, and a GOTO is attempted.
