Either upload the file to Nabble or post the file some and provide a link.
I am not expert on macros but infinite loops are caused by a serious
logic error - not providing a loop exit condition that tests correctly.
I would expect the problem to in a WHILE/DO loop where there most be an
exit condition that terminates the loop.
For example
i = 10
While i > 1 do
loop body
i = i + 1
This above will always test TRUE and never exit. I have explicitly shown
i incrementing.
But the following will exit because the loop condition will eventually
evaluate to false:
i = 10
While i < 1000 do
loop body
i = i + 1
Another error is for the above examples is to forget to increment i
