Using Loops

[Uentil 0]

You can execute multiple things in a sequence by using a Loop.

 

 

Dim i As Integer

For i = 0 to 10
'Code here...
Msgbox "Current number is " & i
Next

You can also loop a few other ways.

 

do until x = y
  'random code'
loop

 

do while x = y
  'random code
loop

 

You can of course use an inequality sign.

True that.

I just find the way i posted a bit cleaner and i can understand how its working better.

[Poply 178]

Heh, I'm the exact opposite.

 

I may be wrong but on the last line, shouldn't it read "Next i"?

[Uentil 0]

yeah, next i

Vb loops:

 

For-next: the overall best in my opinion. Perfect for looping for a predefined amount of times or forever

 

Do- they are good for when you don't know how many times you'll have to loop, however they are often buggy

Another way of doing a loop is this:

 

If x <= 10 Then
'Code Here
x = x + 1
Endif

Nice, but what about infinite loops? :S

[ViperSRT3g 224]

If Stop = False Then
'Insert Code Here
End If

 

And just never set Stop to true unless you wanted it to stop lol

viper, that'd require a timer and alot of messy coding.

Well, in order to help you out, I'll need a little bit more of additional information about your project.

First off, what kind of data are you saving? Is it text? Numbers? A combination of both?

 

And when you click save, do you want the program to first check to see if you have duplicate data entries in the list you are making, before saving the entire list to a database?

 

And lastly, what format are you saving it to the database? Is it line by line? Or a custom format?

while 1=1

{

//execute code

}

...A simple infinite loop?

He's asking for specific help on checking and storing information in his list and database. And he's working with VB6 as well, not VB8.
