Advancing to the next iteration of a loop?
 

I can't find any way to advance a loop in VB. It won't let you put a NEXT
anywhere by the bottom, and I can see anything like "continue" or "next for".
Is this feature really missing??!?

What kind of loop??? A Do/Loop??? Post an example of your code.

You just have to do something like this:

Sub a()
Dim Counter As Integer
For Counter = 1 To 10
If Counter = 5 Then GoTo NextLoop
Debug.Print Counter
NextLoop:
Next
End Sub

Ewwwwww. No wonder people whine about this language.

Well the good news is I wasn't just being dumb.

How's a 'Continue' or a 'Next for' or whatever any better than a goto?
All of them violate the basic premise of good programming: every block
of code must have a single entrypoint and a single exit point. One can
always use If...Then block. If the nested code is reasonably large use
or more subroutines.

Every language has its own set of compromises and limitations. If one
is so inclined there is something to whine about *every* language ever
developed. ;-)
