Commands


Specifies the Visual FoxPro commands to be executed for each element in Group. Commands can include any number of commands.
EXIT


Transfers control from within the FOR EACHВ ...В ENDFOR loop to the command immediately following ENDFOR. You can place EXIT anywhere between FOR EACH and ENDFOR.

Examples

The following examples demonstrate how FOR EACH is used to enumerate elements in a Visual FoxPro array, an OLE array, and a set command buttons assigned to an object array.

In the following example, a Visual FoxPro variable array is created and FOR EACH is used to display the contents of each element in the array.

В Copy Code
DIMENSION cMyArray(3)
cMyArray[1] = 'A'
cMyArray[2] = 'B'
cMyArray[3] = 'C'

FOR EACH cMyVar IN cMyArray
   ? cMyVar
ENDFOR

In the following example, an instance of Microsoft Excel is created, and a new workbook is added. FOR EACH is used to display the name of each worksheet in the workbook. This example requires that Microsoft Excel be properly installed on the machine on which the example is run.

В Copy Code
oExcel = CREATE("Excel.Application")
oExcel.Workbooks.ADD

FOR EACH oMyVar IN oExcel.sheets
   ? oMyVar.name
NEXT oMyVar

In the following example, five command buttons are placed on a form. FOR EACH is used to display the buttons on the form and specify the captions, font styles and positions of each button.

В Copy Code
PUBLIC oMyObject
oMyObject = CREATEOBJECT("frmTest")
oMyObject.SHOW

DEFINE CLASS frmTest AS FORM
Height = 200
DIMENSION MyArray[5]
   PROCEDURE Init

      FOR i = 1 to 5
         THIS.AddObject('THIS.MyArray[i]',;
            'COMMANDBUTTON')
      ENDFOR      

      ****** FOR EACH - NEXT ******
      FOR EACH oButton IN THIS.MyArray
         oButton.Visible = .T.

      FOR EACH oButton IN THIS.MyArray
         oButton.FontBold = .T.

      j = 1
      ****** FOR EACH - ENDFOR ******
      FOR EACH oButton IN THIS.MyArray
         oButton.top = j * 30
         j = j + 1
      ENDFOR   
      
      ****** FOR EACH - ENDFOR element ******
      FOR EACH oButton IN THIS.MyArray
         oButton.FontItalic = .T.
      ENDFOR obutton
      
      j = 1
      ****** EXIT  ******
      FOR EACH oButton IN THIS.MyArray
         oButton.Caption = "test" + str(j)
         j = j+1
         IF j > 3 
            EXIT
         ENDIF
      NEXT
      
      j = 1
      ****** LOOP  ******
      FOR EACH oButton IN THIS.MyArray
         IF j > 3
            LOOP
         ENDIF
         j = j + 1
         oButton.Left = 25
