Re: Is there a Shortcut here?

What's "nasty" about

If status = 1 or status = 3 or status = 5 or status = 7 or status = 9 ;

?

I suppose a "shortcut" would be to write an array and do a lookup.

if %Lookup(status : StatusArray ) > 0 ;

I am getting ready to write a nasty if statement and had a thought. "Is
there a shortcut for this?"

Is there something similar to the IN statement in SQL but for an RPG IF
statement? In SQL I could say WHERE STATUS IN (1, 3, 5, 7, 9). Is there
something similar for an RPG IF?
