How to go to force it to go to specific line in program

[Collin]

ok I feel like I'm missing something

I'm sure this is feasable, so please help

Running a program

Multiple nested if and do statements

however within a few of them are points which "stop the process" and start at square one

with the way I have it though now the timers make it wait a long time even with the stops working properly

Sooo I'd like to find a way, when one of these stops happen.. to just "go to line X" and start the code from there again

so I don't have to go through the rest of the damn process

(oh I can't restart the whole program because there are input parts I don't want to have to redo if I'm not at the window and it restarts, so like at line 50 it would start or 100 or whatever)

Any help would be appriciated

Sounds like you might need to rethink the way you write your script, A GOTO should not be needed and even if it were available in AutoIt I would recommend that it was never used.

Can you give an example of your code?

If you split sections up into functions here's one way could control the program flow with a stage variable.

$stage = 1

while 1
  Switch $stage
   case 1
      test1() 
      $stage = 2;we'll go to the next stage
     
    case 2
      if test2() then
         $stage = 3
      else
         $stage = 5;failed so jump to stage 5
     endif
    case 3
.
.
.
    endswitch
       

wend
