Repeat Definition
l
Repeat type:
l
While statement is true: The loop executes while the statement below is true. The
statement is evaluated after the loop so the loop will always run at least once.
l
Until statement is true: The loop executes until the statement below is true. The
statement is evaluated before the loop so the loop may not run at all.
l
Until no more elements (for Text, CSV, Database and PDF files only): The loop
executes as long as there are elements left as selected below.
l
For Each (for XMLfiles only): The loop executes for all nodes on a specified level.
Note
When using an XML For Each loop, it is not necessary to skip to the
repeating node or to have a Gotostep to jump to each sibling, as this loop
takes care of it automatically.
l
Maximum iterations on each line: Defines the maximum number of iterations occurring
at the same position. This expression is evaluated once when entering the loop. The
value returned by the expression must be an integer higher than 0.
