Shiva -

I'm NOT going to give you the technical answer, but anyone who has had the
CS101 course (basic programming logic) has surely been taught that a DO
WHILE loop (RPG/400's DOW operation) doesn't check the looping condition
until it reaches the END of the loop (RPG/400's ENDDO operation).

BTW:  This is true for ALL programming languages...

Regards,
Steve
