Almost. What I am saying is if your exit condition in the while loop tests true, you set vAbort = 1 and break out of the while loop with BREAK
After the while loop you test vAbort and exit the eep with RETURN if vAbort = 1 I hope that is clear. You have to provide the correct conditional clause in my IF statement. ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jim Belisle Sent: Wednesday, August 12, 2009 3:36 PM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - RE: WHILE LOOP Dennis, I think you have it. I want to make sure I understand what your code below does. You are saying that if the var vAbort = 1 the program will BREAK. Then the next command after the ENDWHILE is If vAbort = 1 then Return Endif This will stop the EEP and go back to the form. Is this correct?

One could RETRUN from within the WHILE loop but this might not be a good idea. I would do this: Set var vAbort INT = 0 While...... If condition then Set var vAbort = 1 Break Endif --- code here EndW If vAbort = 1 then Return Endif --more code RETURN ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jim Belisle Sent: Wednesday, August 12, 2009 2:50 PM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - WHILE LOOP I am going to use an EEP in a bit button that contains a WHILE loop. According to the HELP information, it is best not to use a GOTO statement. I know I can use the EXIT code but I do not want the session to completely end. Also if I use the BREAK command, the WHILE loop is broken but the code continues to run. I just want the EEP to end and go back to the Variable form that has the button located on it. What is the best command to use? Jim As you can tell, I am unfamiliar with many of the programming commands. Just learning a few new things at a time.
