Description
The INLIST() function searches a list of expressions and returns a logical true (.T) if the specified expression is found within that list. The expression to search for is represented by <exp1>. Expressions following <exp1> make up the list in which the INLIST() function will search. All the expressions specified must be the same data type: character, numeric, logical, date.
Example
do case case inlist(cState, "CA", "OR", "WA", "NV") cTimezone = "Pacific" case inlist(cState, "MT", "ID", "WY", "UT", "CO","AZ", "NM") cTimezone = "Mountain" endcase
