No it doesn't.  It's an IF statement, not an eval, expressed or implied.

RE: multiple search arguments in one scan?






Doesn't this change the value of TextField if any of the search characters
are found?

Otherwise, that seems like it should work.  I'd just change the target of
the %xlate to a throwaway field.

Thanks,
