[RESOLVED] Ordering of data

Code:

---

For i = 0 To txtInfo.Count - 1
    If Not txtInfo(i) = vbNullString Then
        Print #filenum, lblinfo(i) & " " & txtInfo(i)
        strbuffer = strbuffer + vbCrLf + lblinfo(i).Caption & " " & txtInfo(i).Text
    End If
Next i
   
For i = 0 To cmbInfo.Count - 1
    If Not cmbInfo(i) = vbNullString Then
        Print #filenum, lblsm(i) & " " & cmbInfo(i)
        strbuffer = strbuffer + vbCrLf + lblsm(i).Caption & " " & cmbInfo(i).Text
    End If
Next i

That is the code i am using at the moment to write some stuff to a text file (don't worry to much about strbuffer thats for the clipboard) now what i need is to print the data to the text file but ordered in such a way that cmbinfo(0 and 1) are positioned in the middle of the txtInfo(i) control array.

So the output would be...

txtInfo(0)
txtInfo(1)
txtInfo(2)
txtInfo(3)
txtInfo(4)
cmbInfo(0)
cmbInfo(1)
txtInfo(5)
...

Just to remind you guys i cant add both control arrays together as they aren't identical controls.

Any ideas? I need this as soon as possible! Otherwise i will have to remove the control array and do it a much slower way :(

Hmm maybe a select case? I am using an if statement at the moment only because it is shorter. But if there is a better way please do tell :D

Came up with this messy method :lol:

Remember it is 1:00am here :( so be gentle

It works but if anyone can clean it up or something that would be nice :p

Code:

---

For i = 0 To txtInfo.Count - 1
    If Not txtInfo(i) = vbNullString Then
          If i = 3 Then
              Print #filenum, lblsm(0) & " " & cmbInfo(0)
              strbuffer = strbuffer + vbCrLf + lblsm(0).Caption & " " & cmbInfo(0).Text
          ElseIf i = 4 Then
              Print #filenum, lblsm(1) & " " & cmbInfo(1)
              Print #filenum, lblinfo(3) & " " & txtInfo(3)
              Print #filenum, lblinfo(4) & " " & txtInfo(4)
              strbuffer = strbuffer + vbCrLf + lblsm(1).Caption & " " & cmbInfo(1).Text _
                                + vbCrLf + lblinfo(3).Caption & " " & txtInfo(3).Text + vbCrLf _
                                + lblinfo(4).Caption & " " & txtInfo(4).Text
          Else
              Print #filenum, lblinfo(i) & " " & txtInfo(i)
              strbuffer = strbuffer + vbCrLf + lblinfo(i).Caption & " " & txtInfo(i).Text
          End If
    End If
Next i

Add a Boolean variable, a Select Case, and nest the cmb inf array as follows:

Code:

---

Dim CmbInf As Boolean

For i = 0 To txtInfo.Count - 1
    Select Case i
    Case Is < 5
        If Not txtInfo(i) = vbNullString Then
            Print #filenum, lblinfo(i) & " " & txtInfo(i)
            strbuffer = strbuffer + vbCrLf + lblinfo(i).Caption & " " & txtInfo(i).Text
        End If
    Case Else
        If CmbInf = False Then
            For j = 0 To cmbInfo.Count - 1
                If Not cmbInfo(j) = vbNullString Then
                    Print #filenum, lblsm(j) & " " & cmbInfo(j)
                    strbuffer = strbuffer + vbCrLf + lblsm(j).Caption & " " & cmbInfo(j).Text
                End If
            Next j
            CmbInf = True
        End If
        If Not txtInfo(i) = vbNullString Then
            Print #filenum, lblinfo(i) & " " & txtInfo(i)
            strbuffer = strbuffer + vbCrLf + lblinfo(i).Caption & " " & txtInfo(i).Text
        End If
    End Select
Next i

Sorry for the delay fixed it :)

Here is what i came up with...

Code:

---

For i = 0 To txtInfo.Count - 1
    If Not txtInfo(i) = vbNullString Then
        If i = 3 Then
            For j = 0 To cmbInfo.Count - 1
                If Not cmbInfo(j) = vbNullString Then
                    Print #filenum, lblsm(j) & " " & cmbInfo(j)
                    strbuffer = strbuffer + vbCrLf + lblsm(j).Caption & " " & cmbInfo(j).Text
                End If
            Next j
        End If
               
        Print #filenum, lblinfo(i) & " " & txtInfo(i)
        strbuffer = strbuffer + vbCrLf + lblinfo(i).Caption & " " & txtInfo(i).Text
    End If
Next i

Good show, Paul. I realize you marked the post resolved, but based on your original order condition for writing the information as shown in Post #1, I think you want "If i = 5 Then" rather than "If i = 3 Then" on the third line.

Just my $0.02.

Nah sorry that was just a total example :)
