Can you explain what you mean by #1? I can't see how it would make a difference, SELECT vs ELSEIF.

Subject: Re: IF..ELSEIF vs SELECT (Ake Olsson)
I definitely prefer SELECT-WHEN every time for two reasons:
1. If you have a group of mutually exclusive cases and need to change the program at some point it is much easier to do this with a select clause.
2. Readability! Only one opening statement and one closing (endsl) for the whole thing.
