Select Case statement

Syntax

The Select Case statement uses the following syntax:

Select Case testexpression
   Case expressionlist1
      statements
   Case expressionlist2
      statements
   Case Else
      statements
End Select

testexpression is a single expression, that is evaluated at the top of the list. The expressionlist then lists possible conditions and if the testexpression is equal to this case, the code in that section is run.
