Beginner Switch Statement Question

[Guest]

In VB I can have a switch statement with a

Case 1 to 5

in C# it seems I have to have
Case 1:
Case 2:
Case 3:
Case 4:
Case 5:

is there a short cut in C# similar to the VB to have multiple cases handled
by the one result?

No, the "to" clause is not supported in C#.

It's not possible with the switch-statement in C#.
You could use if-statement instead:
if (switchExpression >= 0 & switchExpression <= 5)
//Case 1 to 5
;
else if (switchExpression = ...)
//Next Case
;
