How to code an "OR" in FV

A week or so ago I posed the question of how to do "OR" in FV - here's how:

#GREATER($ppBarShoesOffB + $ppBarShoesOnB + $ppBlinkersOffB + $ppBlinkersOnB + $ppFrontWrapsOffB +
$ppFrontWrapsOnB + $ppLasixOffB + $ppLasixOnB + $ppNasalOffB + $ppNasalOnB, 0)

The above expression returns "1" (true) if any combination of the variables within the parentheses are true, or "0" if none are true.

Hope this helps...

Addendum to the above:

The same idea also works with expressions, e.g.

#GREATER((#GREATER(whatever) + #GREATER(sometingelse)), 0)

Have fun...

Lou: I tried to write this in a Horse Template by putting (0) after each variable but it did not work. Do you know why it wouldn't work? Should add that I am attempting to get last paceline since I am in horse template.

Freddy,

If you mean (0) instead of [0], then that's why it didn't work - otherwise, this may be better answered by Nathan...

I used [0] but I think the reason I am getting zeros is because there is no equip change on the whole card. I will check this but thanks for responding.
