Hi George,

Absolutely. However in this thread there was an argument for speed, whether or not to use the evils. I got carried away in finding the most optimal solution to the problem.
>I've always thought that there's performance and the perception of performance. A user isn't going to notice when something is 1/10th of a second faster. A user will notice when a minor modification can't be implemented quickly and easily.
Absolutely. Therefor I expressed (as you did) in this thread that the difference between a FOR ... EXIT ... ENDFOR and a DO WHILE solution is neglible.
And in this light we agree that maintainability is far more important than a minor performance difference.
Walter,
