This is my point exactly. This (and presumably the CONTINUE statement) is one example where utilizing the semicolon construct is ineffective, except for comments. Using the FOR/NEXT method is clearly not the preferred method.
This example was brought up because I'm essentially 'searching' through a 3-dimensional table and when I find a specific string in a sub-value, I need to abort the search all together. I cannot bring myself to use GOTO ... I just CAN'T. But maybe this once ... just this once ... <sigh> ... :'-| ... WAIT! I think I've got it! ... Yes, to search through each 'dimension' in a single loop ... REMOVE ... and it's darn fast! You people inspire GENIUS! Glad I still had my coins.

Only the first EXIT seems to apply as it executes immediately, skipping over the second EXIT. You would have to add the same test of G = H after the NEXT A2 statement. -----Original Message----- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Dave Laansma Sent: Thursday, April 19, 2012 1:36 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] EXIT ; EXIT inside a loop Given: FOR A1 = 1 TO X FOR A2 = 1 TO Y <little twisted logic> IF G = H THEN EXIT ; EXIT <twisted little logic> NEXT A2 <twisting little logic> NEXT A1 <little twisting logic> The question is, if G = H, will the two EXIT commands drop out of both loops, skipping BOTH <twisted little logic> and <twisting little logic>, and resume execution at <little twisting logic> ?
