Scripts not working right

[lpianwi]

Hi All,
 
I have written the below code, and placed it on the exit event of a drop down list on a form that I am working on. The script works some times, and sometimes, it does'nt work right.
I do not know why it is not working right all the times. I need help with possibly what I may be missing.
 
 if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="Annual"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="2";
   }
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="Change of Rater"){
        ReasonFor.rawValue="03";
   }
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="Change of Duty"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="04";
   }
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="PCS"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="04";
   } 
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="REFRAD"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="04";
   }
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="Retirement"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="04";
   }
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="Discharge"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="04";
   }
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="Reassignment"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="04";
   } 
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="Relief for cause"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="05";
   }
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="Depart TDY"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="06";
   }
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="60 day opt"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="07";
   }
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="SR option"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="08";
   } 
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="Complete Rec"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="09";
   }
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="Ext annual"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="10";
   }
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="Promotion"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="11";
   }
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="REFRAD (USAR/ARNG ONLY)"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="12";
   }  
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="REFRAT"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="12";
   }
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="REFRADOS-RC"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="12";
   } 
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="REFRADOS"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="12";
   }
if(ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue=="REFRCO-AD"){
   ReasonFor.rawValue="12";
   } 
 
 Thanks

Hi,

Could it be there are empty trailing spaces for your values? Try adding this before the start of all the 'if' statements :

xfa.host.messageBox("Selected value:" + ReasubdrpdwnList1.rawValue + ".");

Then notice if there are gaps between the selected value and the "." .

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Ber

V/r There is no problem with your script.Can you plz mention for which selection your script is failing.
I would suggest you to use Swtich statement instead of using many if loops.
