Okay,



Silly IF statement syntax question here.  I've looked in the books and can't find anything about it.



Does AREV support the IF ... ELSE IF "step ladder" construction like C++ and VB do?



For example



IF condition then

*do something

ELSE IF condition2 then

*do something else

ELSE IF condition3 then

.

.

.

END



Thanks,



Matt Sorrell

<QUOTE>IF...THEN...ELSE format would be:



IF .... THEN

  ACTION1

END ELSE

  IF .... THEN

    ACTION2  (or another nested IF..THEN..ELSE, ad nauseum)

  END ELSE

    ACTION3

  END

END



I don't know of limits on nesting IF..THEN..ELSE statements in RBasic.

Beyond two levels I move to CASE or ON GOSUB routines to speed things up.



Hope this helps.
