I have no idea what you mean, they both "abort" if you want to call it that. They both exit the loop on the exact same condition, at the exact same moment. I don't see the distinction you're trying to draw

You are correct in your examples they are the same. But that is not the oint here. You must remember that we are in two FOR..NEXT loops with ossible 1000s or 10,000s loops. If we are processing and suddenly a esource goes off-line, then we need to abort the process. My construct is great way of handling the abort. Your way doesn't work because the values of G or H can change if you just eep looping on your FOR...NEXT loops. The original poster wanted to EXIT ut, and stop processing. David A.
