This program shows you the use of the For-next command, which has been modified by the Step command.
You just need an empty form to get it going.
The Code:
PUBLIC SUB Form_Open() DIM x AS Integer FOR x = 0 TO 100 STEP 5 PRINT x, NEXT END
You should get the following result:
0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65 70 75 80 85 90 95 100
The colon does not work here. I donīt know why.
Try some similar code with funny results:
PUBLIC SUB Form_Open() DIM i AS Integer FOR i = 1 TO 100 STEP i PRINT i NEXT END
Or this code
PUBLIC SUB Form_Open() DIM i AS Integer DIM x AS Integer FOR x = 1 TO 10 FOR i = 1 TO 100 STEP x PRINT i & " "; NEXT NEXT END
