Could you explain more why your On.Abort executes another On.Abort ? I didn't understand that part.

In UniData it is: ON.ABORT ...which is a very finicky task to accomplish in that the command doesn't permanently turn on or off anything, it simply executes a command on a program abort. For us, the command executes the ON.ABORT command again (for the next abort) the routes the user back to the main menu; a very abstract way to get the job done.
