>Nice trick, I am now wondering if a single evaluation to a string in the Select Case would be as fast as using TypeOf in each Case.
The select case also supports boolean types
As to the speed, you may want to test it.
First case :
String comparison is slow
Second case needs quit a bit of work
- evaluation of the TypeOf operator
- compare with the type ( System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox )
- compare the result with the Select Case value ( True)
Think string comparison will be the faster - but -: I do not know
