Control flow statement to mark the end of a For...Next loop.

Syntax

` Next [ identifier_list ]

`

Description

Indicates the end of a statement block associated with a matching For statement.

When Next is used on its own without an identifier_list, it closes the most recent For statement block.

identifier_list is optional and may be one or more variable names separated by commas. This form of the Next statement is retained for compatibility with QB. identifier_list, if given, must match the identifiers used in the associated For statements in reverse order, from inner to outer.

Examples

start GeSHi

For i As Integer = 1 To 10
    For j As Integer = 1 To 2
        ' ...
    Next
Next

end GeSHi

start GeSHi

For i As Integer = 1 To 10
    For j As Integer = 1 To 2
        ' ...
    Next j
Next i

end GeSHi

start GeSHi

For i As Integer = 1 To 10
For j As Integer = 1 To 2
    ' ...
Next j,i

end GeSHi
