End of Statement (Cross Ref > Data Structures)

By Mike Prestwood

C# versus Access VBA: A side by side comparison between C# and Access VBA.

Language Basics

Language basics is kind of a catch all for absolute beginner stuff. The items (common names) I chose for language basics is a bit random and include items like case sensitivity, commenting, declaring variables, etc.

End of Statement

[Other Languages]

Languages Focus

In coding languages, common End of statement specifiers include a semicolon and return (others exist too). Also of concern when studying a language is can you put two statements on a single code line and can you break a single statement into two or more code lines.

C#: ;

C# uses a semicolon ";" as an end of statement specifier and you can put multiple statements on a single line of code if you wish as well as split a single statement into two or more code lines.

Syntax Example: 1 certification question.

Console.WriteLine("Hello1");
Console.WriteLine("Hello2");  
Console.WriteLine("Hello3");
 
//Same line works too:
Console.WriteLine("Hello4");  Console.WriteLine("Hello5");

//Two or more lines works too: 
Console.

  WriteLine
    ("Hello6");

Access VBA: Return

A return marks the end of a statement and you cannot combine statements on a single line of code. You can break a single statement into two or more code lines by using a space and underscore " _".

Syntax Example:

MsgBox "Hello1"
MsgBox "Hello2"
MsgBox "Hello3"

'The following commented code on a single line does not work...
'MsgBox "Hello4"  MsgBox "Hello5"
 
'Two or more lines works too with a space+underscore:
MsgBox _
 "Hello6";
