View 2 RepliesI'm programming a utility for a game, and at the moment I am adding chat commands for it. They use the Select Case type, but I want to be able to use multiple conditions for 1 case.
Current
Case "/lame"
If sParameter = "announce" Then
AnnounceMsg("^1No Laming
^7Laming consists of
^5* ^7Attacking someone with
^5- ^7Weapon Down
^5- ^7Chatbubble Up")
[Code] .....
I get an error:
Conversion from string "/lame" to type 'Long' is not valid.
Select Case currentNodeName
Case "string1","string2","string3","stringEtc"
Case Else
[Code]....
The above is a code snippet... of course I've already made my declarations earlier in the code. My issue is I get the error " 'Select Case' must end with a matching 'End Select'." It looks to me like VB is not liking my If statement with the "Next For" in the middle. I'm sure this is a basic syntax issue.
I have an app that adds ammount to gether and i am trrying to do some error checking. This is the code i Have so far
CODE:
I would like to turn this into a select case so that it calls all the code need to check before running. I have tried to do it my self but has been ages since i coded and even then it was in VB6. I know there is a way to do the case in a module and then call it into the form where i need it. i have 3 radio buttons that if they are not selected it pops up a message to say so.
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?

ive got a form containing treeview on the left docked, and two panels one over the other (just as for practice), so i am using treeview to select one from the other the code contains the Case select,
If
Not e.Node

Nothing

The problem is , both panels are not visible, when i select the first node the firstpanel is visible then i select the second node both panels are not visible, i return to the first node the first panel is visible.
[code]I don't get any error messages, but the DoSomething() line is never executed. I guess this isn't possible.
View 7 RepliesI'm working on a routine that requires a significant amount of nested and daisy-chained logic. Using If-Then-Else, each logic construct would run 8-15 lines of code (quite readable) while using Select Case each construct doubles that (even with significant commentation, it gets less and less readable with each new Case).
I've read many times in this forum how Select Case is leaps and bounds ahead of If-Then-Else in runtime performance, although I can't recall any discussion of the underlying process(es) that make it so. I've also not had any luck finding good, detailed documentation on the nuts and bolts under each logic construct. What I'm working on, if the performance leap is legit, needs the performance more than the readability but if the performance is marginal then the readability is going to get the priority. how and why Select Case is supposed to process so much faster than If-Then-Else. Links to good white paper would be really nice too.
I have a macro that uses "If Then" to choose what macro to run based on the ActiveCell. I would like to use the Select Case method instead. How would I change this code?

Question is, I basically wrote a Rock Paper Scissors game in VB.NET using If statements and wondered how exactly I would try and work this into a Select Case instead.Professor was pretty awful at teaching things and didn't let us know until today that it had to be Select Case(its due tomorrow

I am using visual basic in VS 2008 and trying to learn how to assign a value to a word in a combo box using case select, this is my first attempt at programing and i just can't work out what to do next. So far i have two combo boxes a label and a button, i want the word, first to = 11, second = 9, third =7, fourth = 5. All it is doing at the moment is adding the list index value and displaying that total in the label. I want it to display for eg: if (first=11) and (second=9) are selected a total of 20 in the label,and so on for what ever combination is selected.

I have assigned nodes in my treeview keys depending on what they are to do with and now i would like to use a select case to choose the right calculation depending on which node is selected.i have tried selecting the key like this:
Select Case tvwFCOM.Nodes.IndexOfKey(tvwFCOM.SelectedNode.Text)
Case Is = "assi06"
Call MinimumSpeeds()
but option strict on dissalows conversion from string to integer. there are more cases, but i have only shown one here. How can i code so that the key is selected from the selected node?
I had to change the given code from If Then to Select Case, and this is what I came up with. But when I run the program, it does not work and gives me zeroes instead of the correct information.

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 am in my programming class and we had a small program to make that would check to see if an value that was entered is a integer and convert it to a Roman numeral. I know how to properly do it by putting the TryParse into the If...Then statement. What I am trying to do is to not use an If...Then statement and go just by a Case Selection statement. If it is not possible then that is cool with me, I am just trying to think outside the box. Here is what i have done with it:
[code]....
When you do say "Case 1" it says it needs to be "Case CBool(1)." Using either "Case CBool(1)" or "Case 1 = 1" provides the same result .However the code shows no errors it doesn't do the conversion, it always displays the label's value as "I"

View 1 RepliesI have say 4 asp.net radiobuttons which are grouped, I want to find out which one is checked.
What seems natural to do is:
Select Case RadioButton.Checked = True

End Select

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]
View 2 RepliesI found this code on here while doing a search and would like to be able to use it but it was written in C and I dont know much about that (don't know that much about VB.NET either but trying to learn)[code]What I do have is a text box where a user enteres a desired number of US dollars to convert to three types of currency.I know how to convert the string entered to an integer so the calculation can take place. What I don't know how to do is modify the above code so that the results will show up in the correct text boxes after each calculation (yes I know I have to convert the integer back to text).If someone could show me how to do the first Select Case I can figure the rest out.
