Command

NEXT <variable>


The NEXT command is used in conjunction with the FOR command to indicate the end of a loop.

Parameters

<variable>
The name of the variable that is used in the matching FOR command.

Example

FOR I=1 TO 3
(some macro commands)
NEXT I


You can "nest" loops (one loop inside another)


FOR I=1 TO 3
FOR J=2 TO 8
(some macro commands)
NEXT J
NEXT I


It is recommended that you indent code inside loops to help show where a loop starts and ends
For an example in a real macro see Modify_op_path or Explode_Shape or Calc_Geo_Extents
