Description | Use the next repeat control structure to skip part of a repeat loop. Form: The next repeat statement appears on a line by itself, anywhere inside a repeat control structure. The next repeat control structure skips the rest of the current iteration, and continues to the next iteration. The following example performs the loop action only if the folder's name does not begin with the character ".":
Usually, next repeat is used within an if control structure, so that the current iteration is skipped if a condition is true and continues if the condition is false. |
