Subject: Goto in Ruby?

I have a simple web GUI that I would like to read a file and enter data
into

This is my class

class Form
  def initialize
    @filename = "search.txt"
  end

 def enter_data
    read_in_test_data.each { |x|
      line = x.chomp
      #need to log testId
      next if  line.upcase.include? 'TESTID'
      next if  line.upcase == 'ADDRESS:'
      $ie.text_field(:name, 'Address1').set(line)
      $ie.text_field(:name, 'Address2').set(line)
      $ie.text_field(:name, 'Address3').set(line)
      $ie.text_field(:name, 'Address4').set(line)
      $ie.text_field(:name, 'Address5').set(line)
      $ie.text_field(:name, 'Address6').set(line)
      $ie.text_field(:name, 'Address7').set(line)
    }
 end

  def read_in_test_data
  #check if file exists and give date of last change
    File.readlines(@filename, "\n" )
  end
  private:read_in_test_data
end



this is an example of the file I am reading

*********************************************** TESTID_10
Address:
30 Choyce Close
Atherstone
Warwickshire
Country:
GB
Search-Results:
20
*********************************************** TESTID_20
Address:
Hamilton Chartered Surveyors
Aidy Street
Bath
Country:
GB
Search-Results:
1
*********************************************** TESTID_30


Sometimes the address can be upto 1..7 lines. What I am looking for is
something like a goto
statement, that when 'Country:' is found a different field can be
filled in e.g.($ie.text_field(:name, 'Ctry1').set(line).

Thanks for the help

Cheers
