I do not use goto statements that often(reminds me of the old basic days). I read that goto statements are slower and most of the time there is another way to code it. I just had one eep that would die at a goto statement. It is nested inside a while loop. The label is also inside the while loop. I changed the code to not use it and now it dies at another goto statement(which it never did before). Maybe it does not like too many goto statements in one eep?

The reason I am asking is I am having one inside a form eep which kills the eep when it runs that line.
