Smart idea Larry!

>You can accomplish this behavior in VB by simply using True as your Select Case. Example:

>select case True
>   case nNumber = 5
>      do something
>   case Not lTrigger
>      do something else
>end select

>Each expression is evaluated with respect to being equal to True.

>>As you know, VFP’s DO CASE allows evaluation of as many conditions as you wish, one on each line of the CASE statement:
>>
>>Do Case
>>Case nNumber = 5
>>
>>Case lTrigger = .F.
>>
>>Case dDate = {01/01/00}
>>
>>End Case
>>
>>With VB’s CASE statement, you evaluate one condition. To evaluate multiple conditions in VB, the code gets ugly, such as placing one CASE statement inside of another.
>>
>>The above examples are simple but I hope you get the point. VFP programmers point out “If you want to handle data, use a data centric tool – Visual FoxPro”. I would like to add, if you want to evaluate conditional logical, use Visual FoxPro.

>>Extend this to how VB handles If statements: If yes and no: If yes or no: etc. and you will see what I mean. If, Case and IIF are very different in VFP and VB.
