Hi I'm new to programming and I need help with a certain question.

Creating a windows application that has a TextBox to input a letter which can be E or F or G or I. Including appropriate label near the text box. E represents English, F represents French, G represents German and I represents Italian. Have a submit button which when clicked will display using a message showing the language that the user has chosen.

Can someone help me write out the code and help me understand it? Thanks.

It sounds like you'd be better off using a ComboBox rather than a TextBox. What happens when someone enters 'A', 'Word', '1' or '#$%&*'?

You only add the follow "switch" code in the button click event Handler:

C#

string language = "unkown language";
switch (Textbox1.Text.ToUpper())
{
    case "E":
      language = "English";
      break;

  //...
}
MessageBox.Show(language);

All in the above, good luck to u.
