[AccessD] MoveNext not working

Good morning all!

Can anyone please see what I've doing wrong in the code below?

I have two tables, tblOutstandingECRs, and tblScript.

tblOutstandingECRs has a single text field which contains a list of document
numbers (like 401-015763 and 401-019737). I need to step through these
records, one at a time, and copy them, with changes, to tblScript. The first
record of tblScript needs to have a fixed bit of text ("set db pdm") and the
last is also fixed ("list record %oldset1 recname,reclevel recn").


If tblOutstandingECRs contained the three records:

401-015763
401-019737
401-023359

I need tblScript to have:

set db pdm
set record ecr\401-015763\1 /var=%oldset1
set record ecr\401-019737\1 /var=%oldset1
set record ecr\401-023359\1 /var=%oldset1
list record %oldset1 recname,reclevel recn


The problem that I'm getting is that it writes the first record ("set db
pdm"), second record ("set record ecr\401-015763\1 /var=%oldset1"), and
third record ("set record ecr\401-019737\1 /var=%oldset1") fine, then goes
into and endless loop of writing the third record again.

Any ideas please what I'm doing wrong here?

TIA!
