Rubbadubbadoo Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 I am trying to write a script that will run two loops consecutively. Example would be something like: While1 repeat 20x Goto While2 While2 repeat 20x Goto While1 Any advice is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution spudw2k Posted May 18, 2022 Solution Share Posted May 18, 2022 (edited) I'm sure there is a method that can suit your needs. Will both loops always run the same number of times? If so, and depending on how complicated the activities are for each loop, you could create two functions for each "task" and then just run them both in sequence. For example Global $iLoopCount = 20 For $iX = 1 to $iLoopCount TaskA($iX) TaskB($iX) Next Func TaskA($iX) ConsoleWrite("Task A: " & $iX & " of " & $iLoopCount & " iterations" & @CRLF) ;do stuff EndFunc Func TaskB($iX) ConsoleWrite("Task B: " & $iX & " of " & $iLoopCount & " iterations" & @CRLF) ;do stuff EndFunc We may ask you to share some code or what you are trying to accomplish to better understand how to help. edit: Actually, I think I misread/misunderstood what you want to do. There is nothing stopping you from having one loop, then another. Use a FOR LOOP if you want to run a loop exactly X many times. For $iX = 1 to 20 ;do stuff Next For $iX = 1 to 20 ;do other stuff Next Edited May 18, 2022 by spudw2k Spoiler Things I've Made: Always On Top Tool ◊ AU History ◊ Deck of Cards ◊ HideIt ◊ ICU ◊ Icon Freezer ◊ Ipod Ejector ◊ Junos Configuration Explorer ◊ Link Downloader ◊ MD5 Folder Enumerator ◊ PassGen ◊ Ping Tool ◊ Quick NIC ◊ Read OCR ◊ RemoteIT ◊ SchTasksGui ◊ SpyCam ◊ System Scan Report Tool ◊ System UpTime ◊ Transparency Machine ◊ VMWare ESX BuilderMisc Code Snippets: ADODB Example ◊ CheckHover ◊ Detect SafeMode ◊ DynEnumArray ◊ GetNetStatData ◊ HashArray ◊ IsBetweenDates ◊ Local Admins ◊ Make Choice ◊ Recursive File List ◊ Remove Sizebox Style ◊ Retrieve PNPDeviceID ◊ Retreive SysListView32 Contents ◊ Set IE Homepage ◊ Tickle Expired Password ◊ Transpose ArrayProjects: Drive Space Usage GUI ◊ LEDkIT ◊ Plasma_kIt ◊ Scan Engine Builder ◊ SpeeDBurner ◊ SubnetCalcCool Stuff: AutoItObject UDF ◊ Extract Icon From Proc ◊ GuiCtrlFontRotate ◊ Hex Edit Funcs ◊ Run binary ◊ Service_UDF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubbadubbadoo Posted May 19, 2022 Author Share Posted May 19, 2022 Thank you spudw2k! Both of those examples are exactly what I was looking for. I am new to this forum and do not know how to post my script but.... What I was after looks something like this: Global $Paused, $Runner HotKeySet("{PAUSE}", "TogglePause") HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate") While 1 For $iX = 1 to 20 msgbox(1,"Title","1") ; This is an inline comment Next For $iX = 1 to 20 msgbox(1,"Title","2") ; This is an inline comment Next Wend Exit Func TogglePause() $Paused = Not $Paused While $Paused Sleep(100) ToolTip('Script is "Paused"', 0, 0) WEnd ToolTip("") EndFunc ;==>TogglePause Func Terminate() Exit 0 EndFunc ;==>Terminate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you get a scrolling box and syntax colouring as you can see above now I have added the tags. Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
