Humour: Mac users and VBA

"We've solved the problem with lack of VBA support on Macs, and it was very easy: we got rid of the Macs. Typically our mac users were pretty expensive to support, being on average less skilled and lacking in knowledge of basics like what a file is, how to search the web, etc, and additionally were routinely late to work and were relative to the rest of our staff unprofessional in demeanor. So in addition to getting rid of the Macs, we got rid of the Mac users.

Trust me, this methodology can clean up lots of your companies processes and deadwood employees. Give it a try!"

goto

goto (I love the cartoon's disclaimer.)

That said I do use goto's in one major situation. At the beginning of any routine to check conditions and immediately exit. For example if I want to update some rates has the service tech rate been entered on the form. I see no reason to have lengthy If then else endif statements with indented code for no particularly good reason.

Other times, which don't happen often, well, you have to. There is no easy way to code around it.
