while loop

[JWTIII]

I have a Input string "1.15;10;1.25;20;1.35;30;1.45;40".  i need to seperate the data, use a For loop i need to input the Iterations

the String length will change.

I want to use a While loop and have it stop when there is no more data.  i can only get it to work when i use a stop button.

thanks

Hi JWT,

you only need a FOR loop:

Why use a loop at all?

Use Split Strings.vi

Its in vi.lib\Advanced String\

There is even a Free Toolkit called "Hidden Gems" that sticks some of those useful vis on the functions pallets.

@Gerd:  What's the loop for?

Hi Jeff,

I made that snippet before even looking at JWTs VI.

In the message the words "FOR loop" and "WHILE loop" came up, so I included AUTOINDEXING in the snippet…

Thank you
