Hey, guys
I'm trying to understand the difference between these structures: Do until...loop; Do...loop until; do while...loop and do...loop while

Is it just the fact that "do...loop until" and "do...loop while" perform the action on the first cell/row/column and only afterward apply the criteria to the remaining compared to "do until...loop" and "do while...loop" which apply the criteria from cell 1 onwards?

Thanks a lot for your help!
Kind regards,
ORoxo

Shade all formula cells
To shade all formula cells: Home, Find & Select, Formulas to select all formulas. Then apply a light fill color.
Basically yes - the Do...Loop until/While will always perform at least one iteration of the Do part, whereas the Do Until/While may not.
