I posted all the code just to let you see it if you need it. If makes a ring in a matrix and search a word. All made with char.

So the problem is
error C2059: syntax error :
If I write case =<
And
error C2059: syntax error : '<='
If I write case <=

How should I do it? THank you.

You can't us variables with case...It must be a integral constant.

switch ( expression )
case constant-expression : statement
[default : statement]

Hey you're my angel: on all thread I've started, there's your sign =D.

Anyway, if it's not like in VisualBasic, Isn't there another way to do it? Always with Switch?
I don't want to nest IFs...

I would use an if statement

if (some condition)
{

}
else if (some other condition)
{

}
else if (more conditions)
{

}
else
{

}

Yeah that's the only solution -.- Why doesn't C++ support the case "variableisation"?!?

Thank you!
