You have two ways to handle this and one is more elegant: you'll
choose :-)
put 1 into myVariable1
repeat with tCount = 1 to the number of lines in fld "myField"
<doMyStuff>
add 1 to myVariable1
end repeat
Or:
repeat with tCount = 1 to the number of lines in fld "myField"
-- use tCount directly here: this will need probably to use a 'do'
command as:
-- do "put foo into myVariable" & tCount
end repeat
Could probably help more with more details about what you want to
achieve.
