    The Select Case control structure allows a program to evaluate an expression and execute different blocks of code depending on the expression's value. It is an alternative to multiple If/ElseIf statements. The Select Case structure evaluates one expression and makes a decision, while If/ElseIf can evaluate different expressions in each block. Select Case is preferred when there are many possible conditions to check. It has a standard format of Select Case, multiple Case statements specifying values and the corresponding blocks of code, and an End Select. Examples show using it to check grades/marks and return the corresponding performance level or comment.

    Select Case....

    End select Control Structure


    Lecture 10
    Introduction
    In this chapter, you will learn another way to control
    the program flow, that is, the Select Case control
    structure. However, the Select Case control structure is
    slightly different from the If....ElseIf control structure .
    The difference is that the Select Case control structure
    basically only make decision on one expression or
    dimension (for example the examination grade) while
    the If ...ElseIf statement control structure may evaluate
    only one expression, each If....ElseIf statement may
    also compute entirely different dimensions. Select Case
    is preferred when there exist many different conditions
    because using If...Then..ElseIf statements might
    become too messy
    The format of the Select Case control
    structure
    Select Case expression
    Case value1
    Block of one or more VB statements
    Case value2
    Block of one or more VB Statements
    Case value3

    Case Else
    Block of one or more VB Statements
    End Select
    Ex 1:
    Dim grade As String
    Private Sub Compute_Click( )
    grade=txtgrade.Text
    Select Case grade
    Case "A"
    result.Caption="High Distinction"
    Case "A-"
    result.Caption="Distinction"
    Case "B"
    result.Caption="Credit"
    Case "C"
    result.Caption="Pass"
    Case Else
    result.Caption="Fail"
    End Select
    End Sub
    Dim num As Integer
    num = Val(Text1.Text)
    Select Case num
    Case 0
    Print "You have entered zero“
    Case 1
    Print "You have entered one"
    Case 2
    Print "You have entered two“
    Case Else
    Print "The number you entered is greater than 2"
    End Select
    Ex 2:
    Dim mark As Single
    Private Sub Compute_Click()
    'Examination Marks
    mark = mrk.Text
    Select Case mark
    Case Is >= 85
    comment.Caption = "Excellence"
    Case Is >= 70
    comment.Caption = "Good"
    Case Is >= 60
    comment.Caption = "Above Average"
    Case Is >= 50
    comment.Caption = "Average"
    Case Else
    comment.Caption = "Need to work harder"
    End Select
    End Sub
     ’ is used to comment the statement in VB 6.0
    Ex 3:
    Dim mark As Single
    Private Sub Compute_Click()
    ‘Examination Marks
    mark = mrk.Text
    Select Case mark
    Case 0 to 49
    comment.Caption = "Need to work harder"
    Case 50 to 59
    comment.Caption = "Average"
    Case 60 to 69
    comment.Caption = "Above Average"
    Case 70 to 84
    comment.Caption = "Good"
    Case Else
    comment.Caption = "Excellence"
    End Select
    End Sub
