IF sFile <> "" THEN LooperToWord(LOOP_Customer, sFile)

sFile is string
// File name
sFile = CompleteDir(fExeDir()) + "MyDOCS" + ConnectionCount() + ".doc"
// The export is canceled if no name was specified
// Otherwise, export the content of the LOOP_Customer Looper control
IF sFile = "" THEN LooperToWord(LOOP_Customer, sFile)
