The Case element is used inside a Switch statement to perform a comparison.

<Case
ExpandXML = "TRUE" | "FALSE"
Value = "Text">
</Case>

Remarks
Within a Switch statement, the Case element is often used in conjunction with the Default element. If the criteria set by the Case value proves false, then the default value is implemented.
Example
The following example checks the value of a UserID field and returns "User Zero" if the value is 0 (zero). Otherwise, it sets a default value: "Not User Zero".
<Switch>
<Expr><UserID/></Expr>
<Case Value="0">User Zero</Case>
<Default>Not User Zero</Default>
</Switch>
