select case

Is there something similar to "select case" in macro scheduler ro do i need to use nested "ifs"?

Basically I have one of 7 scenarios i want o check on and make a selection (set a variable) depending on which of the 7 is true.

cheers

I'm not sure what you're looking for.

This example will determine the case of each character in a string.
The line Let>changedvalue={upper(%value%)} demostrates how to set text to upper case. Change "upper" to "lower" to set text to lower case.

Code: Select all


Let>testtext=QwErTy
Length>testtext,textlen
Let>kk=0
Let>answer=
Repeat>kk
  Add>kk,1
  MidStr>testtext,KK,1,value
  Let>changedvalue={upper(%value%)}
  If>%changedvalue%=%value%
    Concat>answer,%value% is upper case%CRLF%
  Else
    Concat>answer,%value% is lower case%CRLF%
  EndIf
Until>kk,%textlen%

MDL>answer

Hi JRL - thanks for your reply - but that's not what I'm after. What I was looking for is something like this
