Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

The 'RESTORE line' command only seems to allow literal restore points. Could it be modified to allow calculated restore points?
L$ = "dataline" + str$(restorenum)
restore L$

dataline1:
 data 1,2,3
dataline2:
 data 2,4,6
dataline3:
 data 1,3,5
{plus many, many more similar data lines}
dataline399:
 data 5,3,7

This is standard for all MM and CMM so unless it is something that Geoff wants to include in the language then the answer is no.
You have more than enough memory on the CMM2 that you should never need to use restore. Just read to a master copy and then copy from that as you wish

A monster SELECT CASE structure works for now, but it is a pain to extend. I'll try a big 2D array of strings instead...
