Hi Mohanraj...
It is possible if your working on DS 7.5..If you are on DS 7.5... then you can design a sequencer using "start loop" and "stop loop"...Else I think we have to write a routine....

It would be better if you could explain your requirement in detail.
Meena is correct loop activity is available in 7.5 only.

...and in further release.
Impossible doesn't mean 'it is not possible' actually means... 'NOBODY HAS DONE IT SO FAR'

Within a job, you can use a routine that uses looping statements. Look in your online Basic manual at the LOOP and FOR statements.
