Is JUMP supported in VFP yet? :-)

>>>I would argue that the introduction of those evil commands - LOOP and EXIT - was just for lazy programmers who can't be bothered to restructure (indent etc.) their control loops when they suddenly discover another condition, or change necesaary to the loops. They are unnecessary and should never have been introduced. Personally I have managed NEVER to use them. When you have to debug someone else's labrythine, monolithic code, with 20 yard long do while loops, and short-circuiting loops and exits liberally scattered in the code, just to complicate it even further, like I have, then you'd get to hate them.
