Execute a script x number of times based on field?

[chrismarriott]

Is is possible to have a script or subscript executed a number of times based on the value of a field? IE - if you have a portal with 14 records and you have another portal that looks up from the first portal

Create a few global fields

setting one as a counter.

Perform a script w/ loop. to do what ever you want

as many times as the counter field allows

exit loop when the loop counter = 0
