IfNotContains()

OutputVar := Mfunc.IfNotContains(ByRef var, MatchList)

Mfunc.IfNotContains(ByRef var, MatchList)

Checks whether a variable's contents does not match one of the items in a list.

Parameters

var

The name of the variable whose contents will be checked. For the "contains" operator, a match occurs more easily: whenever Var contains one of the list items as a substring.

MatchList

A comma-separated list of strings, each of which will be compared to the contents of var for a match. Any spaces or tabs around the delimiting commas are significant, meaning that they are part of the match string. For example, if MatchList is set to "ABC , XYZ" then var must contain either ABC with a trailing space or XYZ with a leading space to cause a match.

Returns

Returns true if var is not contained MatchList; Otherwise false.

Remarks

The comparison is always done alphabetically, not numerically.
Static Method.
