Thanks for the reply Pete but it doesnt look like what I want.

If say strdegday is between 0 to 6 then I want it to write the value 0

or strdegday is between 7 to 10 then I want it to write the value 1

or strdegday is between 11 to 16 then I want it to write the value 2

or strdegday is 17 and over then I want it to write the value 3

Apologies if im not explaining it clearly it would only wright write one of those values above as it's result.

Thanks in advance !


<edit>What hope have I got when I cant spell write !</edit>

That function will only write one of those values.

Simply do:
VB code:
document.write(calcHotWaterFactor(strdegday))


And you should get the appropriate 0/1/2/3 value written out.

code:
Function calcHotWaterFactorLikeANormalPerson(ByVal strdegday As Integer) as integer
    Dim result as integer
    Select Case strdegday
        Case 0 To 6
            result = 0
        Case 7 To 10
            result = 1
        Case 11 To 16
            result = 2
        Case Else
            result = 3
    End Select
    
    calcHotWaterFactor = result
End Function


I can't be bothered working out if Peter's version would be more efficient or in some other way advantageous - it's unreadable.

Does the integer need to be Integer?

Oh - ASP VBScript - it doesn't bother with types, everything's a variant, so remove all the "AS Integer" stuff, and the ByVal in front of the parameter.

Thanks Kenny,

 

Heres what I get now

Error Type:
Microsoft VBScript compilation (0x800A03EA)
Syntax error
/Degday/DegreeDayslist.asp, line 486
Function calcHotWaterFactorLikeANormalPerson

 

Using this,

 

<% Function calcHotWaterFactorLikeANormalPerson
Dim result
Select Case strdegday
Case 0 To 6
result = 0
Case 7 To 10
result = 1
Case 11 To 16
result = 2
Case Else
result = 3
End Select

calcHotWaterFactor = result
End Function %>

>> Any ideas ?

Other than taking Bob's advice and using JavaScript, no. :(


Here's how it could be done with JS:
JavaScript code:
function calcHotWaterFactor(strdegday)
{
	if (strdegday <= 6) return 0
	else if (strdegday <= 10) return 1
	else if (strdegday <= 16) return 2
	else return 3;
}

Both VBScript and JavaScript have access to the DOM, and thus use document.write(value) where value is what you want to write, and can be any variable/function/etc.

Which line is 486? You seem to have lost the parameter - the fuction definition should be:

 

Function calcHotWaterFactorLikeANormalPerson(strdegday)

 

I've got a feeling that in ASP, the function definition needs to be above any calls to it. I've not done ASP in years :S.

Your right I was calling it first. On moving it up to the page header I get

 

Error Type:
Microsoft VBScript compilation (0x800A0400)
Expected statement
/Degday/DegreeDayslist.asp, line 190, column 7
Case 0 To 6
------^

 

186 <%
187 Function calcHotWaterFactorLikeANormalPerson(strdegday)
188 Dim result
189 Select Case strdegday
190 Case 0 To 6
191 result = 0
192 Case 7 To 10
193 result = 1
194 Case 11 To 16
195 result = 2
196 Case Else
197 result = 3
198 End Select
199
200 calcHotWaterFactor = result
201 End Function
202 %>

 

If your too busy it doesn't matter, as I understand folks have work to do !

You could try
code:
Case 0,1,2,3,4,5,6
	result = 0
Case 7,8,9,10
	result = 1
(etc)

Ah, Google supplied this...

There is no solution for this in vbscript. It works in Visual Basic. It does
NOT work in vbscript.
There IS a workaround:

Select Case true
Case (Number1>=1 and Number1 <=5)
...
End Select

You need to call the function too, ie:
code:
<% document.write( calcHotWaterFactor( bob ) ) %>

Except bob would be whatever is being passed in to the function... can't remember what that was.
