Checking SESSION variable
Hi, I have session variable that contains the directory name "session.strFileName". I also have another session variable "session.ShowMe" that contains multiple directory names (comma-delimited) which i'm setting from my database. Basically, i need to check if the directory "session.strFileName" exists in the variable "session.showme". Example: session.strfilename = 'mywork' session.showme = 'c:\temp\dir1,c:\temp\dir2,c:\temp\mywork,c:\temp\mywork2' --- Colonel Nathan R.

Re: Checking SESSION variable
I think this is what you are asking. sesion.strFileName = D:\Temp sesion.ShowMe = D:\Temp,D:\Test then the above CFIF statement should return TRUE >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 12/02/02 11:08AM >>> Hi, I have session variable that contains the directory name "session.strFileName".

RE: Checking SESSION variable
Use the find function . but from the example that could be ambigious, as there could be more than one mywork2 in different sub folders.

Actually, the session.strFileName would have no path in it. sesion.strFileName = Temp sesion.ShowMe = D:\Temp,D:\Test On Mon, 02 Dec 2002 11:11:43 -0500, Randell B Adkins wrote: > > > I think this is what you are asking. > sesion.strFileName = D:\Temp > sesion.ShowMe = D:\Temp,D:\Test > > then the above CFIF statement should return TRUE > > > >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 12/02/02 11:08AM >>> > Hi, > > I have session variable that contains the directory name > "session.strFileName".

Re: Checking SESSION variable
Then try: This will just look for an instance of session.strFileName within the session.ShowMe variable. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 12/02/02 11:24AM >>> Actually, the session.strFileName would have no path in it. sesion.strFileName = Temp sesion.ShowMe = D:\Temp,D:\Test On Mon, 02 Dec 2002 11:11:43 -0500, Randell B Adkins wrote: > > > I think this is what you are asking. > sesion.strFileName = D:\Temp > sesion.ShowMe = D:\Temp,D:\Test > > then the above CFIF statement should return TRUE > > > >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 12/02/02 11:08AM >>> > Hi, > > I have session variable that contains the directory name > "session.strFileName".
