Description
Repeats a set of script steps. The Loop script step and End Loop script step mark the
beginning and end of a repeating structure of script steps. ScriptMaker™ performs the
script steps that are enclosed within the loop structure until it encounters one of the
following:
an Exit Loop If script step
a Go to Record/Request/Page script step or Go to Portal Row script step when the
Exit Loop After First/Last option is selected
Every Loop step must have a corresponding End Loop step somewhere after the Loop
step and at the same indentation. Whenever you use a Loop script step, ScriptMaker
automatically enters an End Loop step.
Example
Go to Record/Request/Page [First]
Loop
Set Field [Table1::Bonus; 2500.00]
Go to Record/Request/Page [Next]
Exit Loop if [Get (RecordNumber) = 25]
End Loop
Exit Loop If
Format
Exit Loop If [<Boolean calculation>]
