It is possible to make a For loop with steps greater than 1, as in the following example in which K
takes the values 3, 7, 11, 15, . . . . 83.
For K = 3 To 82 Step 4
AnyVBScripting
Next K
You may place loops inside one another (nested loops), but they must all use different control
variables. Example:
For K = 0 To N
VBScriptingK
For L = - 7 To 17
VBScriptingL
For M = S To T
