EXIT DO
EXIT FOR
EXIT FUNCTION
EXIT SUB
Description
EXIT terminates the execution of a block of code in a DO...LOOP, FOR...NEXT, FOR EACH...NEXT, FUNCTION, or SUB. When used to exit a loop, either DO...LOOP, FOR...NEXT, or FOR EACH...NEXT, execution continues with the first statement after the loop; if the loop is nested inside another loop, control is transferred to the loop outside the loop where the EXIT is encountered. When used to exit a FUNCTION or SUB procedure, execution continues with the first statement after the statement which called the procedure.
