Coming from somewhere with over 40 developers the first thing that comes to mind is KISS. Why or why would you want to change a very simple easy to read case statement for something more contrived? We train developers to write clean easy to maintain code. When I say we what I mean is we get Martin in for two weeks and then I introduce them to our standards. Must nip upstairs and see how Martin is getting on..bye..

In terms of run time performance or program size, if it really is just a GOSUB, there whould be little disadvantage in writing the more verbose form of your first example.
