Subject: RE: [U2] [BB] Internal functions in Basic


Martin,
I'm not quite following you, because these two paragraphs seem to
contradict one another:

We also have scope rules on label names in local subroutines
such that it is impossible to jump into or out of one as this
would destroy the stacking of the private variables.

Apologies, I was not clear on my meaning because the QM terminology is not familiar to U2 users. A "local subroutine" is one that is framed by
  LOCAL SUBROUTINE name
  ....
  END

We distinguish this from a conventional "internal subroutine" of the type that appears in all mv products.

The scope rules apply to label names referenced inside a local subroutine whereas my second paragraph was refering to what you can do in internal subroutines.
