Isn't that a legit command in TransSQL? I'm pretty sure I've seen it in some relatively new code.

It is a legit command in many languages. But it is generally considered **EVIL** ;-)

Oooo.... must... resist... desire... to... discuss.... I don't want to accidentally give this thread a theme. Besides, who wants to bore the non-programmers (especially so early in the year) with design theory?

Code: Select all

For Each Magazine In Rangebag
     Gun.Add = Magazine 
     Gun.Slide.Close 
     Do While Gun.Magazine.Empty = False       
          With Gun
          .Aim 
          .Shoot 
          End With
     Loop 
     Gun.Magazine.Eject 
Next Magazine

If Gun.Type <> "Glock" Then 
     Gun.Clean  
End if
