AFAIK the best way of doing this without the GOTO would be to set flags:

EXIT.FLAG = ''
CONT.FLAG = ''
FOR T=1 TO 10
  FOR Q=1 TO 6
    FOR X=1 TO 9
      IF CONDITION THEN EXIT.FLAG = 1
      IF CONDITION THEN CONT.FLAG = 1
      IF CONT.FLAG THEN CONTINUE
      IF EXIT.FLAG THEN EXIT
    NEXT X
    IF CONT.FLAG THEN CONTINUE
    IF EXIT.FLAG THEN EXIT
  NEXT Q
  IF CONT.FLAG THEN CONTINUE
  IF EXIT.FLAG THEN EXIT
NEXT T

Subject: [U2] How to "exit" out mulitple loops?


For instance.

FOR T=1 TO 10
    FOR Q=1 TO 6
        FOR X=1 TO 9
             IF CONDITION THEN EXIT ; EXIT
                            OR
             IF CONDITION THEN CONTINUE T
        NEXT X
    NEXT Q
NEXT T

So the point being if a condition occurs, I want to stop
   the x and q loops entirely, and continue on with the
   next t iteration.

This is with UV10

yes, I could use a line label, but then I'd almost be
forced into a goto. Please no wars on this
or anything that takes more than 5 additional lines
