Case switch question

Is there any limit to the number of case switch options you can have?
I have a case switch that now has 15 options in it and i am sure i will add many more before the end of my project.
Will i run into performance problems if i have a switch statement with 30 options?

thanks

toby

Absolutely not. You could have 300 cases and it would not effect performance. Switch conditional is extremely fast and efficient...
