Re: R: RPG Indicators

Hi Jon,

I just ran into this yesterday. When using SETLL to determine if a
particular key exists, using %found doesn't do it. You *have* to use the
equals indicator. %found will return true if an exact or generic match is
found, even if the equals indicator only is specified.
