The basic problem is that you only quit in one specific instance--when a = 
100. If a never gets to 100, you never quit. You never get to the "quit()" 
line, so it doesn't matter which Xtra you use.

More often you would do something like

quitMe = FALSE
repeat with a = 1 to the MaxInteger
     doSomeStuff -- set quitMe to TRUE here
     if quitMe = TRUE then exit
end repeat

Cordially,
