newbie help : subsumption

Hi,

now the motor control case statement selects ok when i use numbers but i would much prefer to use text, can anyone help..

I'm not sure I understand that correctly but let's say that this work

motor_control:

select case motor_actuator
  case 1
    portb = %00000001 
  case 2
   portb = %00000010
end select
return

Then set up some constants matching those numbers, like:

Left CON 1
Right CON2
Forward CON 4
Reverse CON 8

select case motor_actuator
  case Left
    portb = %00000001 
  case Right
   portb = %00000010
'and so on.....
end select
return

Sorry if I misunderstood.
