if field contains "anything"

[jsaltzman]

What function would i use if i want to perform an if statement thats says

if["thisfield = "anything"] by anything i do not mean the word i mean anything at all, any info.

One method is: If [not IsEmpty(thisfield)]

[Vaughan]

Or perform a search for "=" without the quotes, and select the omit option. (A search for "=" finds all records that have the field empty.)

[CobaltSky]

If ["not IsEmpty(thisfield)]

If ["thisfield <> "" "]

If ["Length(thisfield)"]

are the three most likely suspects.
