Huh. I totally overlooked that possibility. That sure is a simple resolution for an _effective non-iterative_ Do-group to support the LEAVE; i.e. use an iterative Do-group which implicitly is run-once, as a _trick_ to get the desired behavior. Of course much like avoiding those other coding concerns expressed earlier by Mark [i.e. avoid: repeating yourself, too much nesting, more than one return-point], using various /tricks/ are also considered best-avoided.

Even so... Back to the original topic from the OP:

DoUntil '1' /* Make this a peudo-iterative DO\ENDDO */
ChkObj QSTRUPEX1 *Pgm /* Check for exit program. */
MonMsg CPF9800 EXEC(Leave) /* Not there or Not Authorized */
Call QSTRUPEX1 /* Run it. */
MonMsg CPF0000
EndDo
