SYMPTOMS
The program shown below demonstrates that the error "CASE after CASE ELSE" displays at run time if a second SELECT CASE construct is nested inside another SELECT CASE after the CASE ELSE statement.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug that occurs in the interpreter in Microsoft QuickBasic version 1.00 for Macintosh . The problem does not occur in a compiled application.
This problem is corrected in QuickBasic version 1.00b.
MORE INFORMATION
The following program demonstrates the problem:
INPUT a
SELECT CASE a
CASE 1
PRINT "one"
CASE 2
PRINT "two"
CASE ELSE
INPUT b
SELECT CASE b
CASE 1
PRINT "sub one"
CASE 2
PRINT "sub two"
END SELECT
END SELECT
When the program is run in the interpreter, a "CASE after CASE ELSE" error message displays.
