That code will not work if ALL of it is in the loop...

You need to put the first line outside of the loop ( before it starts ) then place the second line inside the loop.

Alternatively, have it when you press a key, or click the mouse, the first line is executed, and then have the second line in the loop as per the first suggestion...

Hope I Helped...
Jess.
