``++GoTo++`` is an unstructured control flow statement. It makes code less readable and maintainable. Structured control flow statements such as ``++If++``, ``++For++``, ``++While++``, or ``++Exit++`` should be used instead.
== Noncompliant Code Example
----
Sub GoToStatementDemo()
Dim number As Integer = 1
Dim sampleString As String
' Evaluate number and branch to appropriate label.
If number = 1 Then GoTo Line1 Else GoTo Line2
Line1:
sampleString = "Number equals 1"
GoTo LastLine
Line2:
' The following statement never gets executed because number = 1.
sampleString = "Number equals 2"
LastLine:
' Write "Number equals 1" in the Debug window.
Debug.WriteLine(sampleString)
End Sub
