how would i be able to stop a for/next loop with an if statement?

basically saying

for x = 1 to 40
print examplearray(x)
if examplearray(x) = "example string" then
EXIT LOOP
next

realli the only thing that matters is the bit in caps

i tried this statement in the for next loop:

if something = something then
next

but that just came up with the "next without for" error

next is the only way i know to end a for/next loop but is there another way that i can exit it like halfway through the loop with an if statement or something

thnx a lot

Exit For

(i'm almost sure) otherwise search MSDN

malloc

You can exit a for loop with the Exit For statement.

example:

jumentous

it depends on the loop type

in a For/Next Loop Using Exit For
in a do/loop Loop use Exit Do

Peperl

I don't know if this is what you refer, but you can use both bucles


This executes a bucle ten times, but no increas myforbucle till the other bucle's condition is True

WARNING, that loop is not going to end.

I'm sure the Exit For will work, maybe not the prefered way of ending an loop, but it will work.

A DO loop that tests for both end conditions is perhaps a better solution.
