Using Group Name to determine next step

[HRA_Brian]

I want to use the Group Names to determine which analysis type occurs in a script.

Ex: I have 4 types of Channel Groups that have multiple variations in my data portal

A1

A2

A3

B1

B2

B3

C1

C2

C3

C4

D1

D2

D3

A4

etc etc

I want a script that does something like:

for ii = 1 to numberGroups
if Group(ii)Name = "A*" then
analyze A
else if Group(ii)Name = "B*" then
analyze B

etc etc

Does anyone have any experience doing this?

Hello Brian,

for similar evaluations I use SelectCase; is easier for me and the code is more clear.

The calculations itself are "outsourced" into the subs, which can be placed at the end of the main code.

For iGr = 1 To Data.Root.ChannelGroups.Count
  analyse = Left(Data.Root.ChannelGroups(iGr).Name)
  Select Case analyse
    Case "A"
      Call AnalyseA
    Case "B"
      Call AnalyseB
  End Select
Next


Sub AnalyseA
'.....
End Sub

Sub AnalyseB
'.....
End Sub
