Sorry, I don't get the logics behind your request nor from your code snippet. Please explain in plain English what you want to achieve. Are you aware of the short circuit evaluation?

Did you read (and understand) post 7 ?
Quote:
The reason for your complaint is called "shortcircuit evaluation" and is used in many languages: If the first operand in an and operation fails, the result is known and the second is not needed to be evaluated.
And, besides, why don't you use code tags as requested?

Yes..Correct..

There may be some of the files which has zero records(Ex:First file has data..second file doesn't have data...) when it checks for first file it's gone through but second file doesn't have data as per my consern second file also has to be checked.
But it's coming out from for loop.

Ok..Anyhow thanks for your response...

Have a great day...

Then you have to rephrase the logics. Check both files, keeping results in variables, then test the variables and proceed depending on test results.
