goto, as far as I know is not supported by ksh.
and besides who-ever supports it generally recommend not to use it
, so y do you want to use it. instead create functions in k-shell
function fn {
#write fn here,
#echo returnval
}
## call as below
ret_val=`fn`
# check your return value
if [ $ret_val -eq "something" ]
....

Hi,
I'm trying to use the goto in ksh but it does not appear to be a valid command. Is that only valid in csh? Anything similar in ksh that I can use?
Appreciate any help you can provide.
Thanks.

DB2_STMT_ERROR(3) 1 DB2_STMT_ERROR(3) db2_stmt_error - Returns a string containing the SQLSTATE returned by an SQL statement SYNOPSIS
string db2_stmt_error ([resource $stmt]) DESCRIPTION
Returns a string containing the SQLSTATE value returned by an SQL statement. If you do not pass a statement resource as an argument to db2_stmt_error(3), the driver returns the SQLSTATE value associated with the last attempt to return a statement resource, for example, from db2_prepare(3) or db2_exec(3). To learn what the SQLSTATE value means, you can issue the following command at a DB2 Command Line Processor prompt: db2 '? $sqlstate- value'. You can also call db2_stmt_errormsg(3) to retrieve an explicit error message and the associated SQLCODE value. PARAMETERS
o $stmt - A valid statement resource. RETURN VALUES
Returns a string containing an SQLSTATE value. SEE ALSO
