How about a generalized immediate IF function:
IIF(BooleanExpression, TrueValue, FalseValue)
which would evaluate the BooleanExpression and return the TrueValue or
FalseValue depending on the result. The BooleanExpression could be anything
that follows an IF in the R:Base language:
vConfirmMsg = +
IIF(PayType IN ('Visa', 'MC', 'Amex'), 'Needs Confirmation', 'Payment OK')
This would have all the functionality of IFEQ, IFGT, etc, plus a lot more
that is not currently available in the variable list in Forms and Reports.
(IIF happens to be the name of this function in, I think, FoxPro, but the
name could be anything else).
