This from the Excel VBE, but word should be the same
Sub a()
Dim Abc As String
Abc = "Fred"
Dim City As String
Select Case Abc
Case "Joe"
City = "Sydney"
Case "Fred", "Jim"
City = "Melbourne"
Case Else
MsgBox "Haven't heard of this guy"
End Select
End Sub
The Select Case is a nice easy way to select between similar things without
a chain of nested IF's.
