Is there way in BaaN script to do an elseif in a if block?

Whats wrong with an oncase statement? Maybe if you provide us with a sample of what you are looking for you might get a variety of solutions.

Is there way in BaaN script to do an elseif in a if block?


Hello,

do you mean something like this :

if <codition> then
do something
else
if condition_2 then
do something_2
endif
endif

Regards

What he is asking about, if i understand it right, is a vb like if-elseif-else-endif statement...
Would be interesting if this is possible in Baan scripts...

Hi,
I have not seen such kind of statement in BaaN script. You have to work with alternate option.

The best alternative option IMHO is the on case statement. Check the following links, they have good examples:

In short
1. The elseif construction is not available .
2. On case will suffice in most cases where = (equal to ) opertor is used in if / else if conditions . In cases where other operators such as < , > , <> , IN , like (not possible in baan) or many functions such as pos , rpos etc are used , likelihood of on-case being useful reduces .
3. In that case , if-else-if-else-endif-endif suggested by others is very useful and practical.
