Switch on OleDbType?

I am built a massive set of if/else if statement to examine different
OleDbType types. I would like to make this into a switch, but that
only seems to work on Int and String. What is a better way to do this?

Thanks.

Hi there,

once I have solved this by evaluating yourobject.GetType().ToString(), which
returns something like "System.OleDbString" or whatever... Since this is a
string, you can use switch.

Regards

Example,
Dim x As Int32 = System.Data.OleDb.OleDbType.DBTimeStamp

That's right, I forgot this was an enum.

So the answer is - you can use switch for enums the same way as for int
values.

Like switch(myDbType) {case OleDbType.DBTimeStamp: break; case ...}
