True, my bad, I misunderstood that else. But as Andrew Rissing showed you, this is perfectly possible even with such a language like VB(.NET), which was the point of the original post "something else VB can't do": true if you refer to old VB6, false if you refer to VB.NET. Of course no language can compete to the beauty of C(#), but this comes more to personal preference and habit rather than mere possibility to do things.

Sorry to reply, but... VB (.NET!) can do! Of course the syntax is ... exactly the same:
If Test = 1 Then
' Do Ugly Stuff Here Just Because It's Not C#
#If DEBUG Then
Else
#End If
' Do Other Nasty Stuff Here Just Because It's Not C#
End If
But don't trust me, dirt your hands writing a little VB code... Moreover, this is not the only possible techniques: you could also use the System.Diagnostics.Debugger class by inspecting the IsAttached property. Of course this class cannot be use to include/exclude only the else keyword like the example you provided.

I think I've already visited that side, but I'll check it anyway: who knows, maybe they have added it in the meantime. Thanks anyway

Yes I really am. :-O But it's a part of a rehab program: I used to eat baby panda 'til last Saturday... :sigh:

Hi all, I'm looking for a font (typeface) which mimics the characters used in the arrival boards a few years ago, white characters on a black background flipping on their horizontal axis? (of course I'm looking for static fonts, not flipping!) Do you know of such a font? Or know of a good (and possibly free or at least cheap) site? Thanks in advance

Just my 2 cents, of course
