Help on routine-Work with a button

or even my nooby 'take' might work?.

Main:
if sw1=0 then 
pause 3200             ' wait 3.2 seconds (or whatever length of time you expect the user to press/hold the switch for)
if sw1 = 0 then       ' recheck to see if sw1 is still held down
goto label2            ' if it is then go & do some stuff in label2
else
goto label 1           ' if it wasn't held down then go & do other stuff -  goto label 1
endif
endif
pause 10
goto main

label1:
do stuff!
pause 20           ' bit of a pause for switch debouncing
goto main

label2:
do other stuff!
pause 20 '           ' bit of a pause for switch debouncing
goto main

Of course with the method I've posted above, you have to hang around 3.2 seconds to work out whether the user input wanted label1 or label2 - it would really works betterif there was just say a half second pause to decide/glean if label1 or label 2 was required. (but if you're new to picbasic it means grappling with less commands/concepts!)
