                               GOTO──Example
 
The following batch program formats a disk in drive A as a system disk. If
the operation is successful, the GOTO command directs MS-DOS to a label
named "end".
 
    echo off
    format a: /s
    if not errorlevel 1 goto end
    echo An error occurred during formatting.
    :end
    echo Successfully formatted the disk in drive A.
