case "Cash"
msgbox "You are going to pay cash"
case "Visa"
msgbox "You are going to pay with visa"
case "AmEx"
msgbox "You are going to pay with American Express"
case Else

compared with the values for each Case in the structure. If there is a
match, the block of code associated with that Case is executed.
