This is my first time utilizing the switch statement and I was wondering if it was possible to return a dynamic value for any conditional expression of the statement. E.g. my values are based data from a table which varies depending on the record the switch is calling against. -
Switch([Food_Category_ID] = 0, [tblFoodDonations]![Bakery], [Food_Category_ID] = 1, [tblFoodDonations]![Dairy],
-
[Food_Category_ID] = 2, [tblFoodDonations]![Meat],
-
[Food_Category_ID] = 3, [tblFoodDonations]![Fruit],
-
[Food_Category_ID] = 4, [tblFoodDonations]![Vegetable],
-
[Food_Category_ID] = 5, [tblFoodDonations]![Prepared],
-
[Food_Category_ID] = 6, [tblFoodDonations]![Juice],
-
[Food_Category_ID] = 7, [tblFoodDonations]![Non-Perishable], [Food_Category_ID] = 8, [tblFoodDonations]![Non-Food])
-
I also utilize a dynamic value in the expression, not sure if thats also a problem?

Would Choose() not suit your purposes better?
PS. You don't say so, but I'm guessing this is within SQL code rather than VBA?
I tried it yesterday within sql for ms access and inside a vba module. Both gave me zeros as a value, I will try the choose() function and report my results.
Thanks

Hi,
My son is writing a program to move a character. He is
using the numbers on the keypad to indicate the direction
of movement:
7 8 9
4 5 6
1 2 3
Each number has a direction except for '5'. So in
his switch statement, he omits a case for '5':

Can someone tell me if the following Switch...Case construct is valid?
I'm wanting to check for multiple values in the Case statement without
explicitly listing each values.
So for example, will case 1-35: work? If this would work, will it
consider all numbers between 1 and 35 inclusive of 1 and 35? Please let
me know if the following will work below:
switch(state){
case 1-35:
case 37:

hello. i've been beating my head against a wall over this for too

setting the variables 'z' or 'y' to differing numbers, the following
'if/else' code snippet works fine; however, the 'case' code snippet
does not. (the code's function is illustrative.)

I am a convert from VB to C# so bear with me on this "conversion" question
C# switch statement seems to be the closest relative to VB's Select Case. I used VB's Select Case statement liberally. Now I find myself wanting to use "Select Case" i.e., "switch" in C# regularly, but I always have to find another way b/c C#'s switch statement only allows static or integral variables. For example, I often want to use a switch statement based on the...

Is it possible to bind a switch statement to an Enum such that a compile-time
error is raised if not all values within the Enum are handled in the switch
statement? I realise you can use default: to catch unhandled cases, but of
course this is only at run-time.
Example:
public enum MyEnum
{
one, two, three, four
}

Hi there,
I had a question. Is there any way of testing a string value in a
switch statement. I have about 50 string values that can be in a string
variable. I tried cheking them with the if else statements but it
looked pretty ugly and the string values to be tested is still
increasing. The switch statement seems to be a better choice then the
if else statement. But it seems that the switch statement accepts
integer values as the test...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
