Executes one or more statements iteratively while a condition remains true. Checks the condition before executing the statements.
Note This @function is new with Release 6.
@While( condition ; statement ; ... )
condition
Expression that returns a value of True (1) or False (0).
statement
A formula language statement. The maximum number of statements you can include is 254.
true
True (1) unless an error occurs during execution of the condition. An "unexpected data type" error occurs if the conditional expression results in a non-numeric value.
@While evaluates the condition. If the condition is True (1), @While executes the statements then evaluates the condition again. If the condition is False (0), @While terminates.
Tip If you are looping through a field containing a list, be sure the Allow multiple values check box is selected in the Field Properties box for the list field.
For other iterative statements, see @DoWhile and @For.
