a question about for loop

2004-04-20 Thread G_F
Bonjour

the problem I try to solve refers to a for loop which i try to stop
whenever i press a clear button.
I other words, I have a for loop that executes a number of task that last
about 30minutes.
the problem is, that I have no idea about how to quit such loop before the
number of iteration is reached

Thank you in advance for your help


Regards
Gerard

Hi Gérard,

you have two main options

either replace the for loop with a while loop (N needs to be
determined programatically) or place the contents of the FOR loop in a
case statement, leaving one case empty.  By pressing a button linked
to the case statement, the calculations for the remaining iterations
can basically be skipped.  The current iteration will still execute to
completion though.

Hope this helps

Shane.
