a better way
Hi, I was wondering if theres a better way to check certain criteria.
For instance; A2 can = Playing or Winner or loser or Unknown or Suspended. A1 can equal 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5. I use ifs to ask certain questians. If a1 = 1 and a2 = Playing then....... elseif a1 = 2 and a2 = playing then...... elseif a1 2 and a2 = playing then elseif a1 2 and a2 = Winner then ...... etc. As you can see, alot of if's and debugging. Is there a better way to ask these questions. Regards Robert |
