Select case for option buttons

I have an array of 3 option buttons Option1(0), Option(1) and Option(2) and a textbox txtNum

Depending on which option button is chosen and what number is input into text box, I want to write a select case: (But I can't see where I'm going wrong! Any hints or tips folks?

Code:

---

Private Sub cmdSubmit_Click()

Dim Wholesale as String
Dim price As String
Dim Total As Integer

Select Case Wholesale ' Wholesale is the Caption of Option1(0)
Case "1"

    If txtNumRequired <= 5 Then
    price = 50
    Total = txtNumRequired * price
    End If
   
Case "2"

    If txtNumRequired >= 6 And txtNumRequired <= 10 Then
    price = 45
    Total = txtNumRequired * price

End Select

    lblDisplayType.Caption = Option1(0).Tag
    lblDisplay.Caption = "You ordered " + txtNumRequired + " Items" '+ "The cost will be " + Total
    lblDisplayPrice.Caption = Total

End Sub

appreciation for any comments

Do you get any error? if yes, what it says?
Replace Wholesale with Option(0).Caption

I get a compile error:
End Select without select case

Under Case "2", After the If sentence, add End If.

thanks for that - can't see the wood for the trees

Can u see why the total is not being displayed in the label?

just used step into and it is skipping the if statements - justs jumps from case 1 to case 2

I really don't understand what you are trying to do. But it will definatly skip the case statements.

You dim a variable "Wholesale" as a string. Wholesale is now an EMPTY string.

You then run select to check the contents of Wholesale to see if it is 1 or 2. It is neither. It is just an empty string.

Maybe if you explain a bit more what you are trying to do, we can help you with the code.

2 option butts = wholesaler, retailer
1 checkbox = special customer
if option1(0) wholesaler then prices 4 item:
if buying 1 -5 item then 50.00 each
6-10 items then 45.00 each
11-20 items then 40.00

if option1(1) retailer
if buying 1 -3item then 60.00 each
4-8 items then 55.00 each
9 - 15 iems then 50.00 each

if check1 special customer then 10% discount on total

so far I have :

Code:

---

Option Explicit

Private Sub cmdSubmit_Click()

Dim Wholesale As String
Dim price As String
Dim Total As Integer

Select Case txtNumRequired.Text
Case Is <= 5

    If txtNumRequired <= 5 Then
    price = 50
    Total = txtNumRequired * price
    End If
   
Case Is > 5 ' need to say >5 and <=10 but it won't work!

    If txtNumRequired >= 6 And txtNumRequired <= 10 Then
    price = 45
    Total = txtNumRequired * price
    End If
End Select

    lblDisplayType.Caption = Option1(0).Tag
    lblDisplay.Caption = "You ordered " + txtNumRequired + " Items" '+ "The cost will be " + Total
    lblDisplayPrice.Caption = Total
   

End Sub

VB Code:

Case Is > 5, Is <= 10

thank you very much

Some other pointers for you:

1. You set price to a string, but then assigned it a number, could cause lots of problems down the road
2. Prefix your variables! Strings should begin with str, integers should begin with int. It will keep things much easier to follow as your program grows.
3. Use Val() when reading from text boxes. If the user puts in text, it could cause problems.
4. The if statements where redundant. You already checked what txtNumRequired was in your select case statement

VB Code:

Option Explicit
 
Private Sub cmdSubmit_Click()
 
Dim strWholesale As String
Dim curPrice As Currency
Dim curTotal As Currency
 
    Select Case Val(txtNumRequired.Text)
    Case Is <= 5
    
        curPrice = 50
        curTotal = Val(txtNumRequired.Text) * curPrice
            
    Case Is > 5, Is <= 10
    
        intPrice = 45
        curTotal = Val(txtNumRequired.Text) * curPrice
        
    End Select
    
    lblDisplayType.Caption = Option1(0).Tag
    lblDisplay.Caption = "You ordered " + Val(txtNumRequired.Text) + " Items" '+ "The cost will be " + Total
    lblDisplayPrice.Caption = curTotal
 
 
End Sub

You are quite welcome!:)

I was just in the process of removing the if statements as I realised that they were not needed now, thanks for the tip re: prefixing variables etc. I take you point about val() - will use it and then look up what it means/how it works

God I LOVE this site and its helpful people :)
