The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Actually, I think you can use the " in" operator
something like 23 in myArray , myArray being the array name, it
will return true and the sysvar.ArrayIndex will contain the element
number.
Look in the EGL language reference under expressions and operators

I believe you are correct.
I believe the best way is to do a for loop and search the field you need
for the values you are looking for.

Is there a way to search an array without doing a loop.
So, if array has values 1,4,55,23,556,2,65,632,34 and I am looking for
23,
can this be done with any type of built in function?
If not, im guessing the best way is using a for loop and do a compare.
