WHILE/ENDWHILE Problems

[Mark Sponsler]

Another option is to make sure to put a carriage return after your Endwhile statement. 

Grads needs to see an end-of-line marker or it will not execute the command on the last line.   



This holds true for any command at the end of the script, add an extra <CR>. 

Thanks, 
Mark

I'd be more inclined to search for spaces or unprintable characters at 
the end of the endwhile line... just in case.

Hi Jason: 

This looks okay to me in terms of the while loop, however line 5 doesn't 
really do anything.  In fact. that line should give an error like "name 
to long missing =" (the syntax is define newvar=something).  Is this 
really the entire script?
