I have received the following runtime exception message from the code shown but cannot find a list of errors. Can somebody please suggest the cause of this error.
B4X:
Sub keys_Click)
Dim snd As Label
Dim tmp As String
Dim bShift As Boolean
  snd=Sender
  tmp=snd.text
  Select tmp    'This is the exception line and tmp =Shift presumably "Shift"
    Case "Shift"
       bShift= Not (bShift)
  ...
  End Select
End Sub

Thank you for responding.
You have me baffled. I was using the Tag for a Upper Case version of the text on the label. However I have removed all reference to Tag and no longer use that. I have scoured my code and cannot find any lingering reference.
The program runs from scratch each time and so nothing should linger.

Perhaps you could tell me the reason for your question, especially as I had been using Tag. I suspect I am supposed to have had a Eureka moment but I didn't.

Thank you for that response. You are correct because commenting out the others removes the problem. I can now investigate further.
However I was caught by where the error occurred (on the Select itself) and did not account for it being common to all case's and made the erroneous assumption that it was the one following.
If I cannot find it myself I will come back for more advice.
[Edit]The final Case is
Case "Enter" AND etName.Text<>"" may I assume I cannot do that? Of course I can't, how stupid!
