Delphi Error – E2073 Label already defined ‘%s’

Delphi Compiler Error

E2073 Label already defined ‘%s’

Reason for the Error & Solution

This error message is given when a label is set on more than one statement.

program Produce;
label 1;
begin
1:
  goto 1;
1        (*<-- Error message here*)
end.

The example just tries to set label 1 twice.

program Solve;
label 1;
begin
1:
  goto 1;
end.

Make sure every label is set exactly once.
