Select Case

I have a Combo1 with 254 items in it. I need to divide it into 2 case
statements:

Case 0 thru 246

and

Case 247 thru 253

Mastering Visual Basic .Net, Page 139, very bottom of the page states:
Same case statements can be followed by multiple values, which are
separated by commas.

Surely there is a shortcut way of expressing the 247 values in Case 0
above.
How do I show the case values without listing all 247 of them?

Thanks in advance, Jim.

Why not do smoething like this

intValue = FunctionCall( parms )

Select Case intResult

Case Is >= 75 AND Case Is <90
'bla
Case Is < 65
'bla
Case Else
'bla
End Select
Can you psuedocode something that your looking for?

Thought you could do greater than less than in case statements too.
Case Is < 247 ?

Please highlight the 'Select' statement and press F1.

ACK, but note that -100 will also pass in this case.

In this case I would just use an if.
