Exit Statement
Exits a \<emph\>Do...Loop\</emph\>, \<emph\>For...Next\</emph\>, a function, or a subroutine.
Syntax:
see Parameters
Parameters:
\<emph\>Exit Do\</emph\>
Only valid within a \<emph\>Do...Loop\</emph\> statement to exit the loop. Program execution continues with the statement that follows the Loop statement. If \<emph\>Do...Loop\</emph\> statements are nested, the control is transferred to the loop in the next higher level.
\<emph\>Exit For\</emph\>
Only valid within a \<emph\>For...Next\</emph\> loop to exit the loop. Program execution continues with the first statement that follows the \<emph\>Next\</emph\> statement. In nested statements, the control is transferred to the loop in the next higher level.
\<emph\>Exit Function\</emph\>
Exits the \<emph\>Function\</emph\> procedure immediately. Program execution continues with the statement that follows the \<emph\>Function\</emph\> call.
\<emph\>Exit Sub\</emph\>
Exits the subroutine immediately. Program execution continues with the statement that follows the \<emph\>Sub\</emph\> call.
The Exit statement does not define the end of a structure, and must not be confused with the End statement.
Example:
Sub ExampleExit
Dim sReturn As String
Dim sListArray(10) As String
Dim siStep As Single
For siStep = 0 to 10 REM Fill array with test data
sListArray(siStep) = chr(siStep + 65)
MsgBox sListArray(siStep)
Next siStep
sReturn = LinSearch(sListArray(), "B")
Print sReturn
End Sub
Function LinSearch( sList(), sItem As String ) As Integer
Dim iCount As Integer
REM LinSearch searches a TextArray:sList() for a TextEntry:
REM Returns the index of the entry or 0 ( Null)
For iCount=1 To Ubound( sList() )
If sList( iCount ) = sItem Then
Exit for REM sItem found
End If
Next iCount
If iCount = Ubound( sList() ) Then iCount = 0
LinSearch = iCount
End Function
