PL-SQL LOOP Equivilant In TRANSACT-SQL

Hi,

I need to convert this anonymous pl-sql block into transact-sql to run
in Microsoft SQL Server Query Analyser.

Does anyone know what the conversion syntax would be?

I know that to declare variables to use the @.
PRINT for printing the output.

No idea for the LOOP.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Many thanks.

Thiko!

LOOP
INSERT INTO RecoverTest VALUES (SYSDATE - (recordcount / 4));
COMMIT; -- frees up rollback segment;
recordcount := recordcount + 1;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('INSERT: ' || recordcount || ' - 45000 ');
EXIT WHEN recordcount > 45000;
END LOOP;
END;
