David,

Syntactically the IF/ELSE/ENDIFs are nested, so you need 1 ENDIF for each
IF. If you have 3 IFs you need 3 ENDIFs. If you have 20 IFs you need 20
ENDIFs. (yech!)

Here is a good idiot proofing technique:

    IF Case1+Case2+Case3 != 1
        ERROR "You must enable exactly one case!"
    ENDIF
