[AccessD] Learning .Net -- PHP Instead?

  BODY { font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:12px; }If
you want to be strictly OOP, you could use this construct to skip code
that you don't want to remove completely
 do
 exit do ' skip the rest
 ...unexecuted code
 exit do ' safeguard from eternal loop
 loop
 also, you don't really need to use goto in error code even though
Access generates a bunch of it.  I will follow up on that later

 And that is the core issue Rocky.  I personally have not used Goto,
 other then in ErrorHandling, in quite some time.  The last time I
can
 remember is something similar to what Max posted, where I had a
section
 I was skipping in 'testing/development', and I used the goto to sort
of
 'mass comment' out a section.
 With OOP, it should be very rare that you ever even have a super
long
 single procedure function.  Objects should be coded to handle a vast
 majority of whatever your code is trying to do.  Standard Modules
should
 only be used when it doesn't make sense to create an object to
handle a
 task.  However, my main point in debating this particular issue is
that
 you can't possibly know every possible coding project that has or
will
 ever exist, so to deny a tool simply because of people misusing it
is
 just stubborn!

 If the steps are coded as subs or functions then you don't have to
 repeat
 the Step code - just call the sub or function.  Making the original
 example
 pretty clear.  Especially if the functions or subs are titled
something
 description and/or a few comments are inserted into the code.
 (Comments??!!
 Gasp!)

 Hi Drew
 This is a splendid example to demonstrate why _not_ to use GoTo. You
 have to
 read you simple example several times to get an idea what is may do.
But
 only an idea.
 The first variant is much easier if you rewrite it properly:
 Step 1
 If Not SomeCondition Then
 Step 1
 End if
