I could also add that END will end the call table.  It should be used 
wherever you want to return to the calling table.  However, if you need 
a way to stop processing without terminating the called table, label a 
blank line at the bottom of the table something like "alldone" and then 
GOTO it from any place where you want processing to stop without exiting 
the call.
