The problem is that when it gets to a certain file one my /goto calls doesn't work - it says the the name isn't found. The same /goto line was utilized in some of the previous files that the alias worked with, so it seems to be unique to something in this one file. I don't really see how I can debug this, I changed the name and moved it around a little, but to no success. Anyone have any ideas?

Make sure that the command to goto is in the same code, for instance: Code: alias blah { msg $active You just said blah! goto saidblah :saidblah echo You just said blah } That would work... But something like this wouldn't: Code: alias blah { msg $active You just said blah! goto saidblah } :saidblah echo You just said blah Well, i'm not sure if this helped, but it was worth a try.. Good luck [irc://irc.mircx.com:6667/] - #Scripts, #Gmforum.cjb.net

And it does sound to me like he's trying to goto a label that's not in the same alias/event/popup code...or trying to use goto on a timer, which will also generate that message.

It seems it was having trouble finding the label in a nested if statement a few dozen lines above the call. I set a temp variable, /goto'd a place near the beginning of the alias, and if the variable was set I unset it and /goto'd where I originally wanted to go.
