Hi all. 

I just came across a curious issue where I had an if then else control 
structure inside another if then structure. 

I *thought* I used toe be able to use the form

if statement then
    -- do somestuff
else if anotherstatement then
    -- do someotherstuff
else
    -- do defaultstuff
end if

When I nested this inside another if then else control structure it told me I 
was missing an end if! However if I converted the above structure to a switch 
control structure the script compiled fine. Have I stumbled upon something 
here? It kind of makes sense to me because the compiler may be having trouble 
knowing which control structure *else if anotherstatement* belongs to. 

This is not a problem per se, but I am just curious and it may help someone 
else who encounters it in the future to not spend an hour or two poring over 
code that is technically correct but won't compile. 

Bob
