Stop Statement

Description

Suspends execution.

Syntax

Stop

Remarks

You can place Stop statements anywhere in procedures to suspend execution. Using the Stop statement is similar to setting a breakpoint in the code.

The Stop statement suspends execution, but unlike End, it doesn’t close any files or clear variables, unless it is in a compiled executable (.exe) file.

End Statement.

Example

This example uses the Stop statement to suspend execution for each iteration through the For...Next loop.

For I = 1 To 10            ' Start For...Next loop.
    Debug.Print I        ' Print I to Debug window.
    Stop                    ' Stop during each iteration.I
