I have coded a case statement that changes the background colour of a panel. [code]When the code is run, it works for the case of colour1 that is NOT 1 or 2. However, when the colour1 is 1 or 2, it is supposed to pick a number from set array and run another case statement. Instead, it only picks the last value (for 1, this is 5, and for 2, this is 7).
View 3 RepliesWhen my form loads it adds some handles (using AddHandler) to a sub (showStatus). What this sub does is checks which control activated the sub (using sender.Equals) and displays text in the status label (status) accordingly.For this I use an If...Then statement for each possibility. There are many possibilities and my code get cluttered. Is there a way to do the same thing with a Select...Case statement. I tried: Select Case sender Case tbOne : status.Text = "blahblahblahblahblahblah" End Selectwhere: tbOne is a textbox, status is a StatusLabelIt gives me an error though, saying "Operator '=' is not defined for types 'Object' and 'System.Windows.Forms.TextBox'."Any ideas on how I can get this to work with a select case statement?

A co-worker wants to convert the following IfThenElseIf statement into a Select Case statement.
Explain why this is not possible.
If temperature = 100 Then
X = 0
ElseIf population > 1000 Then
X = 1
ElseIf rate < .1 Then
X = -1
End If
It looks like impossible but...

Case 1

Firstly Case 2 runs. Throws exception. And right after this debugger shows that next processed statement is Case Else. Only after Case Else throws own exception Catch block start working. I've never seen this trick. Why can this happened?I'm sure the block is entered once (not like this:first enter hit Case 2 and second hit Case Else).
Update:-To Matt Wilko. Thank you for answering. I've switch to Strict On in Options of VS2010 but nothing has changed. Command is variable, not function. Watch tool shows that on each step Command is the same ( Command = 2).

I'm building a listview search feature in my app. (See the code below). It works really well, except if you search "T" then the code removes all items, if you search "t" then it removes every item except for those starting with "t". Is there any way to make a 'like' statement, or use some kind of wildcard to make the statement not case sensitive?
For Each itm As ListViewItem In ListView2.Items
If itm.Text Like TextBox1.Text & "*" Or itm.SubItems.Item(1).Text Like TextBox1.Text & "*" Then

I am not sure what to do with the following. The code below reads from a massive list of phrases, checks for a certain conditions and if all succeed a) adds the output to the new_question list b) keeps the value of the variable incremental to "level_0".
If the fourth "if statement" fails, the code changes the value of the variable incremental to "level_1" and jumps to a second case statement. The problem is that for certain input the code fails form the "third if statement" and execution refuses to jump to "level_1" (bacause the fourth "if-statement" must fail as well). I tried moving the "incremental variable" between the third and the fourth "and if" but since the code reads from a list of phrases even if it returns true, execution jumps to level_1 (as some phrases fail from the third "if statement"). I hope I am making sense

I just replaced a different segment of code with the select case statement and it works fine. However I don't understand what the dim is for after you do "Select case [variable name here]"
I currently just dimmed a value as nothing. I didn't specify any data type for my variable I'm using for this case statement. But it works.[code]...
I was reading an interesting article here and it made an interesting point about the 'case' statement in vb.net vs the 'switch' statement in C#, which I've pasted below:The following Visual Basic Select Case statement can't be represented in C# with a single switch statement:
Dim Condition As Integer = 55
Select Case Condition
Case 1, 3 To 5, 10, 12, 14, Is > 50
[code]....
I've always found the switch statement in C#, with dropthrough and consequentrequirements for a break in each case, to be a bit unwieldy. Is there any reason they haven't enhanced the switch command to allow these situations? W
EDIT AFTER CLOSE: I'm surprised this was closed, really. With the number of extension methods and helper classes I've found online for other things, I thought an enhanced 'case' would be a good chance. I somewhat hoped a luminary such as Jon Skeet may have commented on the background reasoning, rather than the individuals below who've obviously thought 'religious debate' as soon as more than one language is mentioned.
I am having difficulties getting a case to behave like I want it to. I have to calculate income tax using a case statement. For example if someone makes $7000 or less then they are charged a 10% tax of their input income, if they make $7000 to $30,000 it will bee 10% on $7000 and 15% on the remainder of input income and so on and so forth.determining how to set up a functioning case statement like this?

I want to check the current time with the half an hour time slots (total of 48 starts from 00:00,00:30,01:00,....23:30). Is it possible using select case statement.

now i need to do conditional check on this variable. under whichever the time slot the variable belongs, i need to write a value under corresponding timeslot.
I'm working through a programming project, which should be quite easy but im stuck right at the start (relatively new to VB). I have a textbox (named textbox1) and a checkbox next to it. I want the checkbox to be ticked (.checked) when ever the value in the textbox is between 1 and 100, the checkbox to not be ticked when theres nothing in there, and for it not to be ticked when the value is < 1 and > 100. Figured a case statement would be the easiest. (this piece of code is just a validation check, basically in the real thing the user would have to enter in a value between 1 and a given number, and need to tell the user if that value is valid).
Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged
Select Case TextBox1.Text
Case Is = ""
[code]....
But what happens is, if I enter in the value 1 in the textbox, the checkbox becomes ticked, as it should. It tick with any values between 2 and 99 (any number not starting with 1) but the checkbox becomes ticked again when the value is 100. For any other range, say 1 to 70, the checkbox would be ticked if the value in the textbox is 1 to 7, or any number starting with 1 or 7, but not 8 or 9, or any number starting with 8 or 9.
