The reason why one cannot specify a "variable" realtime GOTO target is because the uv compiler actually replaces those with direct jump instructions into the pseudo-code stream. In the first pass, it notes the offsets of LABELs, then on the second pass updates the GOTO references to those labels. If a GOTO references a non-existing LABEL, your compilation dies. Since the object code doesn't retain LABELs, this type of functionality isn't available.
The closest you may get might be to use: ON SUBINDEX GOSUB SUB1,SUB2,...SUBxx, which uses SUBINDEX to determine which SUBx is executed. This allows the compiler to validate labels but gives you some flexibility at runtime to determine which to actually use. =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+= "I reject your reality and substitute my own" - Adam Savage Glenn M.
