I would personally use a CASE statement for this (structured programming background), but don't see anything wrong with what you are doing. &nbsp;Why do you want to shorten it?<br />

If tb.Text = "" Then
      SELECT CASE tb.Name
             CASE "textbox1"
                    ......
             CASE "textbox2"
                   ......
             CASE "textbox3"
                  .......
             CASE Else
                  tb.Text = "0"
      END SELECT
       bool = False
End If

<div>
What about:<br />

<pre><code id="code-312604">If tb.Text = &quot;&quot; AndAlso (tb.Name = &quot;textbox1&quot; OrElse tb.Name = &quot;textbox3&quot; OrElse tb.Name = &quot;textbox3&quot;) Then
    tb.Text = &quot;0&quot;
    bool = False
End If</code></pre>
</div>


What about:


If tb.Text = "" AndAlso (tb.Name = "textbox1" OrElse tb.Name = "textbox3" OrElse tb.Name = "textbox3") Then
    tb.Text = "0"
    bool = False
End If

<div>
Second one should be &quot;textbox2&quot;. Sorry :\
</div>


Second one should be "textbox2". Sorry :\

Is there a way to convert this to a shorter condition with OR's? I tried and got flakey results.<br />

Shorten this conditional Statement

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.

Visual Basic Classic

Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is an object-oriented programming language implemented on the .NET framework, but also supported on other platforms such as Mono and Silverlight. Microsoft launched VB.NET as the successor to the Visual Basic language. Though it is similar in syntax to  Visual Basic pre-2002, it is not the same technology,
