Just to jump into this thread with a problem of my own....

Today I was writing essentially the same code

nTotList = thisform.lstOrders.Listcount
for n = nTotList to 1 skip -1
   ** process stuff
next

** Do more stuff

And the code skipped the entire for/next loop. I tried
a) hard coding the value of nTotList (it was correct)
b) changing the value of nTotList to 1 and 2

Finally I rewrote the code so I couldgo from n = 1 to nTotList. No problems.

I've repeated this on 2 different lists today. Any ideas? Obvious typos? Stupid errors?

TIA
Barbara

>But if you remove items in the middle (one of the givens) that order gets miessed up and you skip stuff, thats why Fred proposed running through backwards.
