st: loop question

[P C <calicep@yahoo.com>]

Hi,

I have a loop question. 

I want to do something like this:

local i=0
gen w1ttflsbyger=.
foreach n in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20{
 replace w1ttflsbyger=`i'+1 if w1flsibage`n'<w1ageint & w1flsibage`n'!=. & 
w1ageint~=.
 replace i=`i'+1 if w1flsibage`n'<w1ageint & w1flsibage`n'!=. & w1ageint~=.
}

Of course, the last line of the syntax was wrong. Basically, I want to write 
something to let "i" to increase by 1 if the condition: "w1flsibage`n'<w1ageint 
& w1flsibage`n'!=. & w1ageint~=." are satisfied. Otherwise, "i" won't increase 
by 1 and will jump out of the loop.

How should I write the loop?

Thanks!
