Select Case Statement
This standard VB control structure executes one or more statements, depending on the value of an expression.

.
.[Case Else
[statement_block]
End Select
Returns
Not applicable
Usage
When there is a match between testexpression and one of the values in expressionList, the statement_block following the Case clause is executed. When the next Case clause is reached, execution control goes to the statement following the End Select statement.
The expressionList(s) can be a comma-separated list of expressions of the following forms:
expression
expression To expression
Is comparison_operator expression
The type of each expression must be compatible with the type of testexpression.
Each statement_block can contain any number of statements on any number of lines.
NOTE: When the To keyword is used to specify a range of values, the smaller value must appear first. The comparison_operator used with the Is keyword is one of the following: <, >, = , < = , > = , <> . You must also use the Is operator when the Case is one end of a range, for example,
Case Is < 100.
