When 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?

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've got the following that has got multiple values of a particular variable and I don't want to stack up to a lot of IF ELSE statements to handle them, so I'd be grateful if some one could very kindly modify the code by using the SELECT CASE statement. Also, I'd like dgMarksEntry.Item(7, i).Value and dgMarksEntry.Item(8, i).Value to handle RANK and COUNT the number of items entered respectively. [Code]

am using VB.NET 2008 and am a complete beginner. am writing a programme that requires the user to select a number from a NumericUpDown control and the number selected will enable the equivalent number of GroupBoxes on a form following a click event.

think that the argument to be passed to the method or sub will be the Case condition but how do I return the corresponding code to enable the GroupBoxes? I have the same issue with resetting all my textboxes to some default text then the user activates more then one event.
I am a noob and I am trying to make a simple resistance calculator for practice. I use text boxes to let the user input the current and voltage, and then a combo box for the units and then a list box to display the results. For some reason no matter which units I select it doesn't convert at all. For example 1/2 will always show up as 0.5 in the list box no matter which units are selected from the combo box. Here is my code.....I know that there is more cases but I only put one to see if it

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.
