RESTORE |
Reset Program Data Position |
stmtref |
Program line number or statement label the data read pointer is set to. |
Use the RESTORE directive to change the position of the data read pointer. When a program is first loaded (or following a BEGIN directive), the data read pointer is set to the start of the program. As the data is read, the pointer is advanced through the various data statements in the program.
To set the data read pointer to a given location, include a statement reference in the RESTORE directive. Omit stmtref to set the data read pointer to the default position at the start of the program. PxPlus returns an End of File message when all data statements in the program have been read.
