The address of the variable you are using is a Forth logical address, but you really need a segment and offset for JMPFI. Use ADDR>S&O to convert the logical address to a segment and offset, put the latter in the variable, then use JMPFI. There are many other subtle features of CODE and PROC definitions related to the contents of the segment registers, the mapping of logical to physical addresses, and so on.
