Default For Next Loop Question

I missed that one. Thanks for sharing.

It kind of looks like something that Tushar would like/do <vbg.

An interesting fact I learned not too long ago:

Sub ABC()
For n = 1 To 10
For m = 1 To 10
For o = 1 To 10
For p = 1 To 10
Debug.Print n, m, o, p
Next p, o, m, n

End Sub

It's probably good practice to write

for n=1 to 10
do something
next n

but it's exactly the same as

for n=10 to 10:do something:next

Reason for being good practice is

for n=1 to 10
for m = 1 to 10
for o=1 to 10
for p = 1 to 10
next
next
next
next

is harder to read!!! (and to debug - ESPECIALLY if the for next loops
are nested further apart than my example!
