How to write a while loop in VB ?

[cjard]

i see these:

Do While <condition>
  'code
Loop


Do
  'code
Loop While <condition>


Do Until <condition>
  'code
Loop


Do
  'code
Loop Until <condition>


While <condition>
  'code
Wend


While <condition>
  'code
End While

note.. this is from memory so some things might be the wrong way round.. can someone tell me what is the form of a while loop? at the moment i do While/Wend but if this is old style (like saying Call <function>) then i'll switch.. just need an authoritative statement

cheers

while/wend isn't valid in vb.net, but the ide (visual studio 2003 at least) auto-converts it to End While. but you probably already knew that

There is no single "correct" way to do it. It just depends on what you need.

They are all equivalent, only, you can't do Exit Do (or Exit While) in a while wend loop, so I believe it make it easier to read and understand as there is only one condition to exit.
