For Each Item - difficulty understanding action

[JMichaelTX]

@VWKM

but am having difficulty applying it to the description on the Wiki page or examples found on the user forum.

@VWKM, thanks for your feedback on the wiki.

I have made some changes to the Wiki that I hope will help clear things up:
KM Wiki: For Each Action

Specifically, I've made these changes in the "How to Use" section:

Please take a look and let us know if this helps.

@VWKM

Also I do not seem to see any explanation of what each of the Collections do

Did you click on the link to the Collections page?
From there you can click on each individual Collection for details.

@VWKM

My understanding of looping macros is limited to that found in the macro languages for WordPerfect and now FileMaker

Can you give me an example of a repeat loop from FileMaker?
I'll translate it in to a KM For Each process.

@VWKM

Would it be possible for the Wiki to have some more basic explanation and a few very simple examples?

Did you download and look at the example in the wiki:
MACRO: [FILE] Process Lines in Text File

It is very simple. It just processes line read in from a text file.
