RESUME

Continues program execution from an error-trapping handler.

Syntax

RESUME [ location]

RESUME NEXT

Comments

location is the line number or label at which execution should continue. If you specify 0 or omit location, execution continues at the statement causing the error.

The keyword NEXT continues execution at the statement immediately following the statement causing the error.

Example

ON ERROR GOTO Handler
OPEN "A:TEST.DAT" FOR INPUT AS #1
'statements
END

Handler:
  PRINT "Place disk containing TEST. DAT"
  PRINT "in drive A. Press Enter."
  INPUT dummy$
  RESUME
