[Smile] Array of variants. What does that mean? or do I even need to know...

if check more on that same page:
array has it's own number but is always with something else.
12 (variant) is one of those numbers.

no, you don't need to know.
you could simply do:
code:
if 8000 < vartype($var)
"array"
else
"not array"
endif

I'd rather use the logically correct way of
code:
if vartype($var) & 8192

which checks whether the bit equaling 8192 is set or not, thus indicating whether $var is an array or not.

There is an IsInArray() UDF posted in the UDF Forum.

well, you could join the array to string...

example:
$dirplus=join($dirplus,chr(10))

and then you can use instr on it.

newline character.

with it you can keep the strings separated even thought they are inside same string.

if you join with nothing, it is possible to get a match without actual match.

Believe it or not, I found something that works!!!
OCCURS() searches for an element within an array. Since it searches the entire array at one time I don't have to use the FOR EACH statement. I think my problem is solved!!! [Big Grin]

Really? Oh well... OCCURS sounds better anyway [Wink]
Thanks for all your help, and I'll post again if anything else comes up. Hopefully it's done though.
