Use a Timer.
Make it usualy enabled := false, but when you want to active the loop, do Timer.Enabled := True.
Double click on the timer, and enter what ever you want it to do, and in the timer interval, enter the milliseconds between his loops.

| Code: | var i: dword;
begin
for i:=0 to 10 do
showmessage('For Loop: Currently on number '+IntToStr(i));
while i>0 do
begin
dec(i);
showmessage('While Loop: Currently on number '+IntToStr(i));
end;
Repeat
inc(i);
showmessage('Repear Loop: Currently on number '+IntToStr(i));
Until
i=10;
end; |
Should all work. I may be wrong on the Until keyword, but I'm relatively certain.

Why messing up?
Using a timer is much more easy.

Because he asked for a loop and its better to use for,while then using a timer.

Isn't it the same (I'm not saying I didn't use for in my SimsAC)?

I have never seen a timer being used as a loop in any example, source code, documentation. (As long as I remember)
And using for loop is easy and it works great, | Code: | int i;
for(i=0;i<5;i++)
{
// loop body here....
} |
Loops five times, how would you do that with a timer? Even if it's possible, it's not the best thing to do.

Oh!
You was talking on an timer with an end.
I was talking on an endless timer.

you can't do that with delphi (unless you use GOTO, which might confuse people), always has to be some kind of logical statement :(
