VFP Tutorial - For ... Next loop

Executes a section of code several times. The number of repetitions is controlled by a counter which increases by one each time that the loop executes:

lnLimit = 10
For lnCount = 1 To lnLimit
*-- Print the numbers from 1 to lnLimit inclusive
Print lnCount
Next lnCount

The code in this example will execute ten times and will print the numbers from one to ten.

Notes

The Next lnCount marking the end of the structure can be replaced by EndFor but you may find it easier to use the Next option because it is the same form as in Visual Basic and Access.
