    Criteria for early exit of Do Until loop - or would For Next be better?

    The GoTo argument - that is what was expected. Yes, spaghetti code, what programmers use to keep a maintenance job to put starchy food on the table. In my past years of instructing VB and VBA, there were those who objected to using On Error GoTo The use of a Flag (boolFlag) is something I...

    Criteria for early exit of Do Until loop - or would For Next be better?

    In this case, can't exit the Do (loop) because the Loop is at the Record Level. The Conditional Exit is at the Field(s) level. In the real code, there are 15 fields with different conditions. If any conditions return False, then there is no need to check the remanding fields. It is all so...

    Criteria for early exit of Do Until loop - or would For Next be better?

    Thanks, I had one of those in the current Demo and it worked fine. Just wondered if there was something different than a GOTO statement. Other than Error Traps, the trend is to try and avoid them. But, it is simple and it works. But, its a working prototype. Well, let me GOTO your post and...

    Criteria for early exit of Do Until loop - or would For Next be better?

    This question is really about exiting early if one Field receives an "Eliminated" status. Having started with a Do Until - there doesn't seem to be a way to exit midway in the Field evaluation. This example only has 2 fields while the real one has many more. Each field has a different formula...

    ODBC linked PostgreSQL tables in queries readonly

    Queries that have summary can not be updated, you seem to have eliminated that possibility. Tables that don't have an index (e.g. an autocounter) are read-only. You seem to be aware of that too. Can you update data on each single table that makes up the query? Just trying to confirm that each...
