"If a contains Letters not in b " does not work as expected

[NewsArchive]

Hi Friedrich,

please have a look at the attached small demo project. It seems, that
the SB-function "if a contains letetrs not in b" swaps the variables
resulting in "if b contains letters not in a".

Can you confirm this or am I just to stupid to use such a famous product
as SB70?

Thanks in advance.

I agree.
The logic seems reversed.

For not to break existing scripts, I suggest to simply rename the
condition to

if a "does not contain ALL letters in" b

It worked fine in earlier SB6.x versions, so I think we need a fix for it.
Your script is a perfect example of how to use the function.

Be free to add it to your examples.

Fixed in the latest installer runtime source codes now.

BTW, the same problem is in the compiler directive :-(

Thanks for testing!

No, you are completely right. Very good finding! This is definitely a bug
in later SB6.x and SB7 versions.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
