Do not forget to close the nested loop with the variable you used to define it`s range, in your case this is "w"

It's actually a very minor compiler bug causing this.

Put another command after the NEXT statement (eg WAIT KEY, or END) and all will be well.

And actually you can write anything behing "next" it just need to have something behind it, it`s bug i think.
