Select case structure

[Blane63580]

I am trying to use the Select Case to be something like below:

Select Case RedTemp

  Case 20 to 30

      WriteTemp = 10

  Case Else

      WriteTemp = 0

end select

It appears that the "TO" operator is not active in the Select Function in DiaDEM. I would just like to confirm this as being true and see if anyone may have a work around.

Thanks

Hello Blane63580,

We use Visual Basic Script (VBS) to automate DIAdem. Therefore we extended VBS so that it is able to understand the DIAdem commands. VBS is a subset of VBA and doesn't support "TO" for in the "select case" command. Here is the description of the VBS command “select case”and a small example:

Select Case

Depending on the value of an expression, this Select Case conditional statement executes only one of several possible statement groups.

Select Case TestExpression
Case  ExpressionList
  Statements
[Case Else ExpressionList
    else_statements]
End Select

TestExpression	Any numeric expression or string expression.
ExpressionList	A list separated by commas with one or more expressions.
Statements	One or more statements to execute if the test expression agrees with one of the expression values in its Expressionlist_n.
else_statements	One or more statements to execute if the test expression does not correspond to any of the specified expressions.

Dim iVal
iVal = InputBox("Please enter a value")
Select Case iVal
Case 1, 3, 5, 7, 9
  Call MsgBox("Odd number")
Case 2, 4, 6, 8, 10
  Call MsgBox("Even number")
Case Else
  Call MsgBox("Number less than 1 or greater than 10")
End Select
