Hi,

thank you ! that is a fine idea to make GIF images
from a trivial input, so that the guy that try to
help you have to retype all your input. It it is
still much better to create a HTML page instead of
copy/paste the ASCII text !

if you don't  insist on a loop
Make some data:
data = Table[RandomReal[], {10}, {3}];

and

Most /@ data

or
data /. {x_?NumericQ, y_?NumericQ, _} :> {x, y}

or

Drop[#,-1]& /@ data

or

Take[#,2] & /@ data

or

RotateLeft[Rest[RotateRight[#]], 2] & /@ data

and 2^10 other versions will do that.

Regards
   Jens
