Select Case problem

Jun 3rd, 2008

Lets say now i want to use Select Case For some purposes as shown below:

Here, i have two arrays, One is called strmac() and another one is mac().

strmac() is used to store the variable read from the database, it is used to read the Machine ID for example.

mac() is an array used to read the machine ID as well from the INI file.

For example, if lets say i want to loop through the database, first of all i need to go through the INI file first. If mac() has 3 elements of 123,134,144, then only these 3 machine ID will be selected when it read through the database.

Now;

 Help with Code Tags 
 VB.NET Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
Do While Not rs.EOF()
Select Case (strmac)
Case " mac(0) "
'Split it to 24 hours so that i can get the quantity for each hour
Case " mac(1) "
'Do whatever code here
......
Do While Not rs.EOF()
Select Case (strmac)
Case " mac(0) "
'Split it to 24 hours so that i can get the quantity for each hour
Case " mac(1) "
'Do whatever code here
......

The problem is, the code is very long because within each case, i still have many calculations and array which is used to store the count for each hour and it just follow some kind of format. And the size of mac() may changes time to time? Any concern to get it simpler? Thanks.....

You could make each case it's own function

 Help with Code Tags 
 VB.NET Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
 
Case mac(0)
 
    RT_Mac_0
 
Case mac(1)
 
    RT_Mac_1
 
End Sub..
 
Public Sub RT_Mac_0
 
   Do whatever you want
 
End Sub
 
Public Sub RT_Mac_1
 
   Do whatever you want
 
End Sub
 
Case mac(0)

    RT_Mac_0

Case mac(1)

    RT_Mac_1

End Sub..

Public Sub RT_Mac_0

   Do whatever you want

End Sub

Public Sub RT_Mac_1

   Do whatever you want

End Sub

Make sense?
