Jumping to next iteration in loop

Hi everyone

A basic question from an occasional programmer.

I want to jump to the next iteration of a Repeat statement when continuing
with the current object would throw an error. The Exit statement, equivalent
to the 'break' statement in C and other languages, doesn't do the job. It
exits the Repeat statement completely.

What I need is a statement equivalent to the 'continue' statement in C. I
don't see any such statement in the AppleScript manual I am referencing, for
version 1.3.7, dated May 5, 1999.

Am I missing something? If not, how would experienced programmers work
around this apparent limitation in the language?

Kind regards

Paul
