Steve:

I think the best you could come up with (in JBuilder) would be to
modify the value (the one you didn't expect) and continue execution
from that point.  If the new value you assign takes you to the new
entry point (sounds like it would if you are trying to get to some
other section of a conditional block).

Cheers!

P.S.  You don't need to send me mail at the same time.  I'll
eventually see the post.  Thanks!

If you see something that looks like an opinion up there,
it's mine and mine alone.

Mail sent to me from the newsgroups won't bounce but will
be ignored.  If I have time, I'll respond, but you  have
a better chance if you confine your posts to the newsgroups
