Elementary Question about a counter

Hello all.

What I'm trying to do is have a program read an interger from a Textbox, and then perform a function that many times.

Essentially like a for or while loop in Java or C++

Could anyone help me out? This is quite frustrating for someone who has background only in Java, and is used to simply throwing the stuff into a for loop >_<

vb Code:

for x as integer = 1 to cint(textbox1.text)
    'perform function
next

I can see how this information would have been hard to find:
