Topic: Is there a way to specify multiple "or" conditions in $if(cond,then,else) ? (Read 1404 times) previous topic - next topic

Is there a way to specify multiple "or" conditions in $if(cond,then,else) ?

I have a "Lyrics" column that I want to show "Y" if the song has embedded lyrics, and nothing if it does not.  This does that for %UNSYNCED LYRICS%:

$if(%UNSYNCED LYRICS%,Y,)

However, I would like to include %lyrics% in as an "or" with %UNSYNCED LYRICS%, so that FLAC/OGG Vorbis comments are included--in other words, show "Y" if either condition exists, nothing if not.  The closest I've come is this:

$if3(%UNSYNCED LYRICS%,%lyrics%,)

But it only shows a hard-to-see "." if a match is made, and I can't seem to make that show as "Y" instead, as was easy to do in the first example with just one condition.  Is this possible to do, or do I have to settle for the "dot" on the either/or match?

I don't use or that often but try this:
Code: [Select]
$if($or(%UNSYNCED LYRICS%,%lyrics%),Y,)
