Re: read on a do loop

Rob,

It always bugs me when I see someone using a SELECT statement with one WHEN
clause when a perfectly good IF statement would work.  You're using two
statements (SELECT/WHEN) to do the work of one statement (IF).

When there is another option then I'd code a SELECT or ELSEIF.  Using IF
doesn't stop me from thinking about a third option.  I'll use ELSEIF if the
ELSEIF was on another variable:

If A = 'XYZ';
ElseIf B = 50;
EndIf;

I'll use SELECT if all the conditions are on the same set of variables (a
truth table):

Select;
When A = 'XYZ';
When A = 'QRS';
EndSl;
