REPEAT Statement

The REPEAT statement specifies the number of times a CREATE statement or group of CREATE statements is to be used repetitively in the generation of output records. The REPEAT statement precedes the CREATE statements to which it applies. The syntax of the REPEAT statement is:

Label	Statement	Parameters
[label]	REPEAT	QUANTITY=number[,CREATE=number]

where:

QUANTITY=number: specifies the number of times the defined group of CREATE statements is to be used repetitively. This number cannot exceed 65,535.
CREATE=number: specifies the number of CREATE statements to be included in the group.
Default: Only the first CREATE statement is repeated.
