**AskGotoLine( )**

{{blk2blue.jpg|blk2blue.jpg}}

The **AskGotoLine **method prompts the end user for a specific line number to display, then positions the file to the line nearest the one specified.

**Implementation:**

The ASCIIViewerClass invokes the AskGotoLine method from a RIGHT-CLICK popup menu. The AskGotoLine method calls the SetLine method to position to the requested record.

**Example:**

**MyViewerClass.TakeEvent PROCEDURE(UNSIGNED EventNo)**

**  CODE**

**  CASE EventNo**

**  OF EVENT:AlertKey**

**    IF KEYCODE()=MouseRight**

**      CASE SELF.Popup.Ask()**

**      OF 'Print'**

**        SELF.Printer.Ask**

**      OF 'Goto'**

**        SELF.AskGotoLine**

**      END**

**    END**

**  END**
