VBScript » Statements » Select Case
- Syntax:
- Select Case
The Select Case conditional statement selectively executes
different groups of code by comparing a variable to a Case (a
series of conditions). If one of the cases (conditions) is satisfied,
then the code associated with that case is executed.
You may specify multiple, comma-delimited conditions for each
Case as in the first example below. If there not is a match,
then the Case is skipped over and the next Case is
considered, and so on for each Case.
Note that it is quite possible that none of the cases will be
satisfied. Therefore, you may wish to use the optional Case Else
statement. It will only execute if none of the other conditions
match.
Examples
Code:
<%
Select Case finalnumber
Case 1, 5
result = "The result is 1 or 5"
Case 2
result = "The result is 2"
Case 3
result = "The result is 3"
End Select
%>Explanation:
You must end the Select Case statement with End Select or you will get an error message.
