...if (!) the calculator was previously set to line 000 (or 001), e.g. by a RTN. Of course you can also set it to the start of another program somewhere in memory, so that after this program finishes with a RTN or END the pointer is reset to the start of that program again.

I still don't like this behaviour very much. It's simply completely different from what I am used to after 27 years of using HP calculators.

I think this requires an explanation for our non-German forum members: "English for runaways" refers to Otto Waalkes, a German comedian who was especially popular in the 70s and 80s. One of his most popular performances was an English lesson for advanced students, i.e. "Englisch für Fortgeschrittene". Which he translated in this ...err... very special way. ;-)
