Re: Nested Repeat loops

Thanks for all the suggestions. I like the idea of putting the whole nest of repeats in a separate handler as far as the current capabilities of the language, but I really like the idea in Richard's email to have the ability tp name each loop then exit out of a named loop. Is there a QCC report o

Re: Nested Repeat loops
