RETURN
RET

Related command: POINT, number command

The command RETURN positions the record marked by the SET command (compare the entry for SET) into the current line. The workfile section on the display is moved according to the change.

If there has not been a SET command before the RETURN command, you receive the message

If the record marked by SET does not exist any more, this message appears:

and the previous record is moved into the current line.

It is not possible to jump from one workfile to another with RETURN because every workfile has its own SET storage.
