Dear all,

I need all the help I can get.Please do help. THanks in advance.
Here's my problem.

DO WHILE thisform.check = .f.
thisform.aperiod = thisform.aperiod + 1
if thisform.aperiod > acperiod
thisform.aperiod = 1
thisform.ayear = thisform.ayear + 1
endif
thisform.i = thisform.i + 1
[ if thisform.text2.value = thisform.aperiod and;
thisform.text4.value = thisform.ayear
thisform.check = .t.
endif]
ENDDO

Logically I think the part with [] works but something weird
happens instead, I do not know where I go wrong.
GIven thisform.aperiod the value of 10 and thisform.ayear=1997,
thisform.text2.value = 10 and thisform.text4.value = 1998
when it reached the checking part [] the
thisform.ayear's value is changed back to 1997 causing
an endless loop. Why does the IF..ELSE..ENDIF statement
not working?
