Hi krishnakumarramaraj !

We live in 2008!
In most firm's it's forbidden, to use GoTo-Command.

Programming in Cobol-II it's just a NoGo !!!"

Krishna,

Could you please tell us what exactly is your requirement and why would you like to use a GOTO in an inline perform?

You will have some other better option to make use of, instead of using that.

Hello,

The compiler will typically permit this and when compiled it will execute.

Many organizations do not permit this as it is usually a very bad programming practice. One exception that comes to mind is GOing directly to an abend routine that among other things would make sure there was a dump produced. . .
