exit repeat (2) ?

[dsdsdsdsd]

hello;

suppose I have:

repeat with ...
repeat with ...
exit repeat(2)
end repeat
end repeat

such that with the one "exit" statement I can "exit" out of more that one nested loop;

any thoughts?

thanks

As far as I know, your choices are:

exit repeat -- leaves current repeat loop (goes to next step in current handler)
exit -- leaves current handler (goes to handler that called current handler)
abort -- leaves current handler and any handler that called current handler

If you need more control than that you could set a flag that you check later and call another exit repeat at that point.

Whit, thanks for your response;

I was unaware of both the "exit" and the "abort"; though they will not help on this particular issue I appreciate the suggestions;

your flag idea is the way that I am going to work on;
