   For-to variable goes backwards

   From: nfoldager-takethisaway@yahoo.com   
      
   When I step through a for- to loop like:   
      
   for  I =:  1  to  10  do   
      
   the variable, I,  actually starts with 10 and counts down instead of   
   up. This is a  known; it should be due to some optimization.   
      
   But why is this more optimal in the generated code?   
      
   Is there a way to switch this optimization off as long as I am   
   debugging my program?   
      
   It is *most* disturbing during debugging.   
      
   Best regards,
