You might also be able to use COUNT.

IF COUNT(X.STRING,X.CODE) = 0 THEN X.STRING := X.CODE

Not knowing what your potential codes are, though, they may or may not
fit your needs.

Hi Greg, I would convert your string to a VM array, use the LOCATE
syntax to add it if relevant and then convert back to a string. Martin
(I am not going to worry why you aren't just using an array)

Hey Guys,

I am concatenating an alpha code into a string providing that the code 
does not already exist (in the string).  If my existing string =
X.STRING 
and my code = X.CODE should the following work?

IF X.STRING MATCH X.CODE THEN
END ELSE
  X.STRING = X.STRING:',':X.CODE
END

Thanks!

Greg
