How to get out of nested loops

[sarkis]

I have nested loops
I need to exit from both loops i.e continue from operator -xxx
Is there a simple way to do this?

For i=1 to m
For j=1 to n
if j=k Then
---- jump to -xxx
End if
Next
Next
- xxx

Using multiple If statements would be easiest. So:

For i=1 To m
   For j=1 To n
      If j=k Then 
         Exit
      End If
   Next
   If j=k Then
      Exit
   End If
Next

Something like this:

For I = 1 to m

    For J = 1 to n

          If J = K Then 
             I = m
             Exit
          End If

    Next

Next

Thanks for replaying
While admac231-s answer was expected
NJDude-s answer is strange for me.
SO, we allowed to change loop index within!
For me NJDude-s solution is not acceptable because I need indexes.

What do you mean by "indexes"?

What do you mean by "indexes"?

This confuses me also. I would say NJDudes solution is superior to mine.

I meant i and j

 

[admac231]

Well in this case J = K so you can use that elsewhere and you could set I to be another variable and use it elsewhere.

If J = K Then
I = tmpVar
I = m
Exit
End If

Ok, so if I understand you correctly you want to know the values of I and J, then enhancing what admac231 suggested, this is the new code:

For I = 1 to m

    For J = 1 to n

          If J = K Then

              saveI = I
              saveJ = J
              I = m 
              Exit

          End If

    Next

Next

Now saveI and saveJ will have whatever values were assigned when exited the loop.

these are all true.
I think the first solution, with double checking is most efficient?
Do you mind?
