Hi Raja Ram,

If you want to know whether a variable is used for the first time.

then you use a variable like FLAG ( it is not necessary to use the variable name as FLAG you can use something like FIRST_TIME or CRITICAL or whatever you like )

then in the program

if FLAG is initial.

--do something and set the FLAG = 'X' or any other value like A,B ,C and so on

next time the program doen't execute this part

endif.

Hope this is clear to you.

hey flag is nothing but the variable u defined.

Flag is a single character variable u use for checking .

Ex: ur If condition succeeded and if that is succeeded u want to do some action later in the program.

then u move flag = 'X'.

so when u want to do some action then check IF flag = 'X'. then the action will be proceeded.

flag = ' ' means flag variable is cleared.

A variable to set depending on the success or failure of condition or expression.
