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.
I have sometimes used %scan() to provide some similar functionality. There are some risks associated with this, so take care to not hurt yourself...
myCustomerExemptTypes = '("NONEXEMPT", "RETAILEXEMPT", "FULLYEXEMPT")';
chain myCust Customer;
if %scan( '"'+%trim(CustExTyp)+'"' : myCustomerExemptTypes ) > 0;
// non-zero means FOUND (is Valid)
Endif;
It's important to use delimiters to define values, and to enclose the scan string in like fashion. Parentheses for the list string are not necessary, but I like to use them (or [], {}) to so some sort of "dataset" relationship.

Ever wonder why there is no If IN (not to be confused with *IN) ?
If MyCharVar In ('A','B','C');
MyFace = ': )';
Else;
MyFace = ':(';
Endif;
