Controlling Execution
IF and only if..
• One line IF
• IF with and without ENDIF
• IF with and without ELSE
• One line ELSEIF
• Multiple ELSEIFs and Select Case
IF and only if..
• One line IF (without END IF) IF (condition) Then Exit Sub• One seeming line IF IF (condition) Then _ Exit Sub• IF with ENDIF IF (condition) Then Exit Sub END IF
IF and only if..• One line IF with ELSE IF (whatever) Then Yada ELSE YadaYada
• Five line IF with ELSE IF (whatever) Then Yada ELSE YadaYada END IF
IF and only if..
• ELSE required alone on one line IF (whatever) Then
Yada
ELSE
YadaYada
END IF
• THEN at end of line required
• END IF required alone on one line
ElseIF and only if..
• ElseIF is subordinate to the previous IF
IF (whatever) Then
Yada
ElseIF (whatever) Then
YadaYada
ELSE
YadaYadaYada
END IF
Select Case vs ElseIF
• Select Case neat and maintainable
• Case formats very flexible
• Case 1,3,7
• Case 2 to 8
• Case “CA” to “NM”
• Case Is > 21
Select Case Example
Select Case SecurityCase "V"
' set properties for volunteers
Case "S"
' set properties for supervisors
Case ""
' exit sub
End Select
Immediate If!
• IIF is a function
• IIF(condition, true return, false return)
• IIF(blnMale=True,”Male”,”Female”)
• Useful in queries, properties, division
• IIF(intN > 0, 300/intN, 0) ' to avoid an error msg
• IIF(PercentCorrect>=90,"A", _
• IIf(PercentCorrect>=80,"B", _
• IIf(PercentCorrect>=70,"C", _
• IIf(PercentCorrect>=60,"D","F"))))
For Loops
• For intX = 1 to 10 Step 2 • For Each varX in varDataSet
– Next required for these two For formats
• Exit For
Restrictions on For Each…• 1-dimension only• Each control variable must be Variant
For Loops: Examples
Dim varDataSet(0 to 49) as VariantDim intX as Integer, intOdd as IntegerDim intSum as IntegerDim varItem as Variant, varSum as Variant' sum the odd numbered elements (1,3,5,…)For intX = 1 to 49 Step 2
intOdd = intOdd + varData(intX)Next' sum all elements (1,2,3,…) For Each varItem in varDataSet intSum = intSum + varItemNext
Do Loops
Conditional logic after 1 pass through loop• Do … Loop While• Do … Loop Until
Or, conditional logic before 1st pass through loop• Do While … Loop• Do Until … Loop
Exit Do
Arrays
• Lists (states, income levels, schedules, etc)
• Private, Public, fixed or dynamic size
• Dim ccyIncomeLevel(0 to 5) As Currency
Which Array to Go?
• Option Base 1 or Option Base 0?
• Public strState(0 to 49) As String
• Public strState(1 to 50) As String
• Public strState(50) As String– Above will be (0 to 49 or 1 to 50)
depending on Option Base
strMonth(1) = "January"
strMonth(2) = "February"
strMonth(3) = "March"
strMonth(4) = "April"
strMonth(5) = "May"
intInput = InputBox("Enter Month Number")
MsgBox “You mean “& strMonth(intInput) & “?”
Or MsgBox “You mean “& strMonth(intInput+1) & “?”
Flexible Array
• Dynamic• Dim ccyLevel() As Currency
• Expands and contracts
• Good for uncertain run-time conditions
• Can loose contents unless…– Redim Preserve ccyLevel(7)
• Can erase dynamic arrays: Erase ccyLevel
Strings
Notes on strings
• String variables (Dim strName as String)• String literals (txtName = "Jones")
• Mixing variables and literalsSelect * from tblRoster Where Name = "Smith"
• How to embed quotes around strName?"Select * from tblRoster Where Name =" & ???
' If the name is a hard-coded literalDebug.Print "Name = 'Smith'"
' If the name is in a variable (very likely)Dim strName As StringstrName = "Smith"
Debug.Print "Name = '" & strName & "'"
How to embed single quotes
' When the name is a hard-coded literalDebug.Print "LastName = ""Smith"""
'Coding hints for the triple quotes above: 'step 1: LastName = "Smith" 'step 2: LastName = ""Smith"" 'step 3: "LastName = ""Smith"" "
How to embed double quoteswith literal strings
Dim strName As StringstrName = "Smith"Debug.Print "LastName = """ & strName & """" 'Coding hints for triple/quadruple quotes: 'step 1: "LastName = strName" 'step 2: "LastName = """ & strName " 'step 3: "LastName = """ & strName & """ "
How to embed double quotesusing variables
Dim strName As StringstrName = "Nguyen"
Dim strQuote As StringstrQuote = Chr(34) ' ACSII for double quote
strName = strQuote & strName & strQuoteDebug.Print "LastName = " & strName
How to embed double quotesas a variable
String Functions
• mid(strHayStack, intStart, intLength)– Returns string or part of a string
• instr(intStart, strHayStack, strNeedle)– Returns position where needle is in haystack
Mid()
MyString = "Mid Function Demo" ' Create text string.
FirstWord = Mid(MyString, 1, 3) ' Returns "Mid".
LastWord = Mid(MyString, 14, 4) ' Returns "Demo".
MidWords = Mid(MyString, 5) ' Returns "Function Demo".
InStr()
strHaystack ="XXpXXpXXPXXP“strNeedle = "p"
intWhere = Instr(1, strHaystack , "W") Returns 0
intWhere = Instr(4, strHaystack , strNeedle )
Returns 6
Other String Functions
• Left() and Right() ' args: string, no. of chars
• Ucase() and Lcase() ' one arg only
• Trim(), Rtrim() and Ltrim() ' one arg only
• Val(strA) ' change a string to a number
• Cstr(intX) ' change a number to a string
• Because Cstr(57) returns " 57" not "57" use Trim(Cstr(intX))
