No. VSE's GOTO can only be used to GO forward. If the target of GOTO is not unique in the job stream (which in our case - CA VOLLIE - can easily occur, because jobs can contain sub-jobs via -INC and the sub-jobs can have GOTOs, too, maybe with the same labels) then GOTO goes to the next matching label :-) GOTO, BTW, is very helpful, if you have a large job which ABENDs somewhere in the middle, and you have to restart it later at a certain step :-) HTH, kind regards Bernd
