Label and Jump to Label event commands.

[Bluemith]

Could someone explain exactly what these commands do?  All the info ive found just says that they create a label and jump to a label, and thats not all that helpful.  It says to me that i can creat a label in an event and use the jump to, to jump to that spot in the event.  But ive never gotten that to work.  This sounds like it could be very useful in the case of long events with repeated commands if i could get it to work.
Can it only jump to a lable on the same page?
Can it jump from an event to a common event and back again?

You can only use it to jump to a label on the same page of the same event. It's useful for going back to a certain point, or the classic "Do you want me to repeat what I just said?" trick. All you have to do is create a label, and then use the jump to label command with the exact, case-sensitive string of the label you want to jump to, and processing moves to that point in the event.
