On...GoSub statement (LotusScript® Language)
Transfers control to one of a list of labels, processes statements until a Return statement is reached, and returns control to the statement immediately following the On...GoSub statement.
Syntax
On numExpr GoSub label [ , label, ... ]
Elements
numExpr
A numeric expression whose value determines which of the labels is the target of the transfer of control. The value of numExpr must not exceed 255.
label
A label that specifies the location of a series of statements to execute. The last statement in this series is a Return statement.
Usage
The On...GoSub statement, its labels, and the Return statement must all reside in the same procedure.
LotusScript® transfers control to the first label if numExpr is 1, to the second label if numExpr is 2, and so on. Execution continues from the appropriate label until a Return statement executes. Then control returns to the statement immediately following the On...GoSub statement. If LotusScript® encounters a statement (such as Exit or GoTo) that forces an early exit from the procedure before reaching a Return statement, the Return statement is not executed.
LotusScript® rounds numExpr to the nearest integer before using it to determine the target label. If numExpr is 0, or is larger than the number of labels in the list, the On...GoSub statement is ignored and execution continues at the statement that immediately follows it.
LotusScript® generates an error if numExpr evaluates to a number less than 0 or greater than 255.
