How to stop execution of if-statement

Question

Hi I want to stop the execution of if-loop ,I have tried with 'return' statement but its exits from the function ,So how can I exit from the single if Statement.I have tried with following code...

Here I want to stop execution of if(CheckHorizontalSide(SourceMember)) and by stopping this I want to move towards the if(CheckTop(SourceMember))

void A()
{


      if (CheckHorizontalSide(SourceMember))
        {

            if (lblHorizontalMember.Text == DestinationMember)
            {

                lsRelationPath.Add(lblHorizontalMember.Text);
                lblRelationPath.Text = String.Join("-", lsRelationPath);
                lblRelationPath.Visible = true;
                return;
            }

            bool WhetherContains = lsRelationPath.Contains(SourceMember);
            if (WhetherContains)
            {
                return;
            }

            //This below code is not related to the above 'WhetherContains '
            lsMemberID1.Clear();
            lsRelationPath.Add(lblHorizontalMember.Text);


            Find_Route(lblHorizontalMember.Text, DestinationMember);
        }


    if(CheckTop(SourceMember))
    {
    //code here....
    }
}

Which If you want to stop executing, and if you want that why you write in first place. — Pranit Kothari, Mar 22 '14 at 05:00
you can not achieve this behavior in the same method. Just break the if statements into separate methods. — ryrich, Mar 22 '14 at 05:06

You put the rest of the block in a sub-block with { } and put else in front of that.

You can nest as deeply as you want but you might try factoring out blocks to helper functions to reduce the complexity and give statements a name.

 if (WhetherContains)
 {
     // this is actually empty
 }
 else
 {
     lsMemberID1.Clear();
     lsRelationPath.Add(lblHorizontalMember.Text);    
 }

Or,

 if (!WhetherContains)
 {
     lsMemberID1.Clear();
     lsRelationPath.Add(lblHorizontalMember.Text);    
 }
