You must put the smaller value on the left of the "To" keyword and the
larger value on the right...

Select Case
The statement: Case -0.02 To -0.05
needs to be coded as: Case -0.05 To -0.02 since -0.05 is smaller than -0.2 Don't be too hard on yourself - it is Sunday! best wishes -- Bernard Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP http://people.stfx.ca/bliengme "David" wrote in message ...

Select Case
Reverse the arguments. The negative number has twisted your head (as they
often do mine) and the Case ...To... needs small magnitude first: -.02 is LARGER in magnitude than -0.05. Case -0.05 To -0.02 will catch the value.

Thank you all. When I read through help, I don't think this was mentioned. "Don't be too hard on yourself - it is Sunday!"

Select Case
I wouldn't use both end points.
I'd just check to see what it was less than (or less than or equal to): Select Case Delta1ToSP Case is <= -0.10 'that last 0 will disappear, but I kept it here! Stop Case is <= -0.05 Stop Case is <= -0.02 Stop Case is <= 0.05 Stop Case is <= 0.10 Stop Case is <= 1 Stop Case Else Stop End select The first case that matches is the one that is used. And I don't have to worry about what happens at -0.0500000001 David wrote: Hello Group, I have a select case that is not working as I expected, Delta1ToSP = -3.38629648094637E-02 or -.0338: Select Case Delta1ToSP Case -0.02 To -0.05 ' This is where I expected the stop Stop Case -0.050001 To -0.1 Stop Case -0.10001 To -1 Stop Case 0.02 To 0.05 Stop Case 0.050001 To 0.1 Stop Case 0.10001 To 1 Stop Case Else Stop End Select What am I missing?
