  You have the commands mixed up. Because how you have written it will always run the main_loop since thats the value your using with the "High 11" command.
  
  If the switch is connected to pin 11 then you need to replace the "if Out11=" with "if in11="
  
  Also have you a pull-up resistor on the line to start it with a known value?

  Hi Clive,
  i try what you say , but still have that problem , so anyway to make the main_loop run together with recieve_mode , i main it two program run at same time , because i have two bs2 run on this one project so the main_loop it that for say it module and the recieve_mode that recieve byte from the master bs2
  
  This my sample program
  
  HIGH 11 ' the problem when this pin in high it just run the main_loop
  Main:
  
  IF in11 = 1 THEN GOSUB main_loop ' this must wait until switch turn on
  IF in11 = 0 THEN GOSUB recieve_mode ' i need this run first until switch turn
  
  RETURN

  There must be a misunderstanding between our communication.
  
  Why are you using High11?
  Have you an external switch connected to pin 11?

  Tomvin, two things. Let's stick with the simple program and get that fixed before we post large amounts of code that make finding the problem that much harder. Second when you post code you need to 'wrap' the code with code tags so it will format correctly.

  You need to be
    in advanced mode
      to do that. (or just use the tags)
  

  Show us the fixed sample code you tried.

  IF OUT11 = 0 THEN GOSUB receive_mode ' i need this run first until switch turn
  
  RETURN
  
  Are you want to use an input on a Basic Stamp if this is the case then the command would be
  
  this
  
  Mode VAR IN11
  
  DO
  
  IF Mode = 0 THEN
  GOSUB Receive_Mode
  
  ELSE
  
  GOSUB main_Mode
  
  ENDIF
  
  LOOP
  
  
  
  Main_Mode:
  
  'Your code
  
  RETURN
  
  Receive_Mode:
  
  'Your code
  
  RETURN
  
  
  Below is a code routine doing just what your are asking to do in my routine you have to power down the Basic Stamp to change modes but I could have written so I could have done with out turning
  
  
  
  Keep in that if you want change modes you are going to have to put this in a DO LOOP
  
  
  
  IF OUT11 = 1 THEN GOSUB main_loop
  IF OUT11 = 0 THEN GOSUB receive_mode
  
  
  
  Using OUT11 = 1 and then right after using OUT11 = 0 is not a good habit to get into

  Sorry Franklin iam long time not come to forum so forget what to do.
  Hi Clive i used external switch to connect to Pin 11, like i say i have use two Bs2 to connect together by Pin11 because my project need many I/O so one Bs2 not enough for it so that why i need run two program in one stamp the master stamp with all the sensor and the second with some light servo anh say it module , but say it module it have run in loop mode, i know Bs2 stamp just do one stack a time so the switch may help on this.
  Sam_Sam_Sam i try your code but not work , any help thanks.
