Avoid multiple select constructs

Hi,
I m a newbie, I have this select case checking for textbox values. I
want to loop this so that it checks for all the textboxes. Or else I
got to write the same code for each Textbox :(

Select Case Me.TextBox1.Value

Case Is < 2
Me.TextBox1.BackColor = &H80FF80

Case 2 To 4
Me.TextBox1.BackColor = &H80FFFF

Case Is > 4
Me.TextBox1.BackColor = &HFF
End Select

For i = 1 To 10 'or whatver max value

Select Case Me.Controls("TextBox" & i).Value

Case Is < 2
Me.Controls("TextBox" & i).BackColor = &H80FF80

Case 2 To 4
Me.Controls("TextBox" & i).BackColor = &H80FFFF

Case Is > 4
Me.Controls("TextBox" & i).BackColor = &HFF
End Select
Next i

Assuming the controls are the first things on the form or in the container
then you could use something like this...

Dim N As Integer

For N = 0 To 2
With Me.Controls(N)
Select Case .Value

Case Is < 2
.BackColor = &H80FF80

Case 2 To 4
.BackColor = &H80FFFF

Case Is > 4
.BackColor = &HFF

End Select
End With
Next N

....if they're not then you'll need to change the values in the loop (in the
with block) as you go to point to the correct controls.
