Dennis, my copy of the RPG/400 Reference from 1990 (oldest I can lay my hands on) contains the same verbiage as it does today...specifically...

A GOTO operation can be used to specify a branch:
...
...
...
.From a subroutine to a detail calculation line or to a total calculation line

So, it has been that way for long enough for it to not have ever changed...

Subject: RE: Something Wrong with the following Code ?


That is the way I understood it for years! Something must have changed
recently. (By "recently," I mean within the last twenty or so.) The code
compiles (to my similar surprise) on V5R3.

I'd like to see Barbara's take on this.
