The below code enters text into cells based on the number held by the variable named xtraboard. If xtraboard is one, it enters WED into A65; if xtraboard is two, it enters WED into A65 and THU into A66 etc. through xtraboard=30. The below works fine, but I am wondering if there is a better, more efficient way to do this.

Sub board(xtraboard)
Range("A65:A94").ClearContents
Range("A65").Select
If xtraboard = 1 Then
ActiveCell.Resize(1) = Application.Transpose(Array("WED"))
Else
If xtraboard = 2 Then
ActiveCell.Resize(2) = Application.Transpose(Array("WED", "THU"))
Else
If xtraboard = 3 Then
ActiveCell.Resize(3) = Application.Transpose(Array("WED", "THU", "SUN"))
Else
If xtraboard = 4 Then
ActiveCell.Resize(4) = Application.Transpose(Array("WED", "THU", "FRI", "SUN"))
Else
If xtraboard = 5 Then
ActiveCell.Resize(5) = Application.Transpose(Array("TUE", "WED", "THU", "FRI", "SUN"))
Else
If xtraboard = 6 Then
ActiveCell.Resize(6) = Application.Transpose(Array("TUE", "WED", "THU", "FRI", "SAT", "SUN"))
Else
If xtraboard = 7 Then
ActiveCell.Resize(7) = Application.Transpose(Array("TUE", "WED", "WED", "THU", "FRI", "SAT", "SUN"))
Else
If xtraboard = 8 Then
ActiveCell.Resize(8) = Application.Transpose(Array("TUE", "WED", "WED", "THU", "THU", "FRI", "SAT", "SUN"))
Else

ActiveCell.Resize(9) = Application.Transpose(Array("TUE", "TUE", "WED", "WED", "THU", "THU", "FRI", "SAT", "SUN"))

You might want use a select case instead of multiple if's.
Code: 
Sub board(xtraboard) 
Dim cell as range

Range("A65:A94").ClearContents 

set cell = range("A65")
Select Case xtraboard

Case 1
cell.Resize(1) = Application.Transpose(Array("WED")) 
Case 2
cell.Resize(2) = Application.Transpose(Array("WED", "THU")) 
Case 3
etc....
End select
