Reply To: Cannot implicitly convert type int to string? why?

HelloYou are trying to use string type variable in your switch statement which is expecting an int type variable. Here is how you are doing

string thirdn;<br /> switch (thirdn){<br /> case 1:<br /> //code<br /> case 2:<br /> //code<br /> }

1 2 3 4 5 6 7

string thirdn;<br /> switch (thirdn){<br /> case 1:<br /> //code<br /> case 2:<br /> //code<br /> }

Now the problem is you can not use string type variable in switch statement. You could use it like

<br /> string thirdn;<br /> switch (thirdn){<br /> case "1":<br /> //code<br /> case "2":<br /> //code<br /> }

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

<br /> string thirdn;<br /> switch (thirdn){<br /> case "1":<br /> //code<br /> case "2":<br /> //code<br /> }

Or you could have use int type variable like

<br /> int thirdn;<br /> switch (thirdn){<br /> case 1:<br /> //code<br /> case 2:<br /> //code<br /> }

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

<br /> int thirdn;<br /> switch (thirdn){<br /> case 1:<br /> //code<br /> case 2:<br /> //code<br /> }
