VBScript | SELECT CASE statement

Rather than using too many IF-THEN conditions to check a value and take action, you are better off using the SELECT CASE condition. It produces cleaner code and is specifically meant for multiple IF-THEN conditions.

The correct use of SELECT CASE:

Select Case strValue [strValue is the variable you want to evaluate]
Case "John"...
do someting here if strValue = "John"
Case "Paul"...
do someting here if strValue = "Paul"
Case Else... [Unlike IF-THEN-ELSE, Select Case has CASE ELSE as the "catch-all"]
do this if strValue does not = "John" or "Paul"
End Select [END SELECT ends the Select Case loop, like END IF for IF-THEN]
