Sometimes I create multiple custom commands without a variable, and other times I consolidate multiple commands into a single command with many different cases.

I'm wondering if there is a recognition or speed (dis)advantage to having commands separated out into many commands, or having them consolidated into a single command with several lists.

Here's an example command that has many different cases, some more similar than others. Would you break this up into multiple commands?

 Command name="[md] [markdown_limited]"  

If ListVar1 = "new MD" Then SendKeys "{Enter 2}"

Select Case ListVar2

Case "italics"

SendKeys "**{left}"

Case "bold"

SendKeys "****{left 2}"

Case "bold paste"

SendKeys "**^v**"

Case "strikethrough", "strike"

SendKeys "{~}{~}{~}{~}{left 2}"

Case "underline"

SendKeys "__{left}"

Case "code"

SendKeys "```~~~```~"

Wait 0.1

SendKeys "{up 3}"

Case "code paste"

SendKeys "```~^v~~```~"

Case "link"

SendKeys "[]{(}^v{)}"

Case "italics paste"

SendKeys "*^v*"

Case "wiki paste"

SendKeys "[[^v]]"

Case "highlight paste"

SendKeys "==^v=="

End Select

End Sub

List name="md"

List name="markdown_limited"
