Making a Next statement into a Loop statement in Visual Basic.

Question

Hey everyone. My friend and I are re-learning Visual Basic, and we are stumped on this bit of code.

For intAsterisks As Integer = 0 To intLine - 1
  lblAsterisks.Text = lblAsterisks.Text + "*"
Next

We need to be able to make that from a For Next code into a Do Loop code. Could anyone assist us?

Answer 1

dim intAsterisks as integer = 0
Do While intAsterisks < intLine
    'Do stuff
    intAsterisks = intAsterisks + 1
Loop

Answer 2

I would ask the question "Why do you need to convert it?"

Dim i as Integer = 0
Do While i < intLine
    lblAsterisks.Text = lblAsterisks.Text + "*"
    i = i + 1
Loop
