For control variable already in use

  • Article

When you nest For...Next loops, you must use different control variables in each one. This error has the following cause and solution:

  • An inner For loop uses the same counter as an enclosing For loop. Check nested loops for repetition. For example, if the outer loop uses For Count = 1 To 25, the inner loops can't use Count as the control variables.
