Description

The NOEXIT command can be used in conjunction with the MENU EXIT command to cause control to remain within the menu after a command is executed. Normally, when the EXIT keyword is used with the MENU command, the menu is exited after a menu item is selected and the associated commands executed. If the NOEXIT command is executed as one of the commands associated with a menu item, then the menu will not be exited.
