Exit Statement
This standard VB statement terminates loop statements or transfers control to a calling procedure.
Syntax
Exit {Do | For | Function | Sub}
Returns
Not applicable
Usage
Use Exit Do inside a Do...Loop statement. Use Exit For inside a For...Next statement. When the Exit statement is executed, control transfers to the statement after the Loop or Next statement. When used within a nested loop, an Exit statement moves control out of the immediately enclosing loop.
Use Exit Function inside a Function...End Function procedure. Use Exit Sub inside a Sub...End Sub procedure.
Example
This example uses the On Error statement to trap run-time errors. If there is an error, the program execution continues at the label "Debugger." The example uses the Exit statement to skip over the debugging code when there is no error.
Sub Button_Click
Dim msgtext, userfile
On Error GoTo Debugger
msgtext = "Enter the filename to use:"
userfile = "c:\temp\trace.txt"
Open userfile For Input As #1
' ....etc....
Close #1
done:
Exit Sub
Debugger:
msgtext = "Error " & Err & ": " & Error$
Resume done
