IDK, Wills code looks fine. I don't see where it wouldn't work.

Will, Two things. First, good programming practice tells you to define the abort logic once. Sure G # H is simple, but this is just an example it could get quite complex. Second, There are statements before and after the abort situation, and your code doesn't handle it. David A.

But that is not the int here. You must remember that we are in two FOR..NEXT loops with ssible 1000s or 10,000s loops. If we are processing and suddenly a esource oes off-line, then we need to abort the process. My construct is great ay of handling the abort. our way doesn't work because the values of G or H can change if you just ep looping on your FOR...NEXT loops. The original poster wanted to EXIT t, and stop processing. avid A.
