Problem Topic
GOTARG: Statements allowed in block?

Problem Description
Are any statements other than GOTO allowed within a GOTARG block? There is no indication in the standard that such is allowed. Does this then mean that RAPID is applied to all GOTOs within a GOTARG, or only to the first one?

Resolution

Warning!!

The following statement is only a resolution to a Standard Improvement Request (SIR) and is NOT part of the current DMIS standard, nor is it guaranteed to become part of the next revision of the DMIS standard even if voted and accepted by the DMIS National Standards Committee. This resolution is tentative because it may not be incorporated into the next version of the standard, it could be changed prior to the next release, or it could be changed as the result of the "public review and comment" period required for the next version of the standard. If you choose to use this tentative resolution, you do so at your own risk since at this time it is not part of the DMIS standard.

Accepted per 4/97 with SIR 97-7.

Add note to the RAPID statement:
Note: RAPID only applies to move the statements GOTO, GOTARG, and GOHOME. RAPID applies to the GOTARG block. All GOTOs within the block will execute at the RAPID speed.

Add to note for the GOTARG statement:
Only GOTOs can be used in a GOTARG block.
