if statement [RESOLVED]

I was browsing some source code and saw this IF statement:

VB Code:

If m > n Then n = m
        GetFilename = Mid(Path, n + 1)

it has no END IF. I didn't know you could omit that part.

comments?

You can IF AND ONLY if the statement to execure upon true value is on the same line. That would be the "n = m" part in this case.
"GetFilename = Mid(Path, n + 1)" will ALWAYS run, no matter what the result of the IF statement is.

I can't remember where I've read this, but there may be a bug with using the one line IF statement - memory leak or something. Maybe that's just the compact framework.

interesting. I don't think I'll start using that but definetely worth knowing :)
