When trying to run this code:
brow for iif(empty(lcValue),isdigit(allt(ctag)),inlist(cTag,&lcValue))
I get "Function argument value, type, or count invalid". In this instance the value of lcValue is empty. It seems like the IIf() is still evaluating the code. cTag is a field. Any ideas? I have to leave but will check back later.

Thanks, Chuck

Inlist(fieldname, &lcValues)
