Hey nickchobotar,
Sorry, that doesn't work..what I am trying to do is use a list instead of providing hardcoded values. The function works fine if you have the values hardcoded..I am trying to have it work like this:
each List.ContainsAny(myListNameHere, { [CodeValueField]})
..reason for this is so that it can be a parameter (instead a hardcoded value)
My bad--it does work!! I must have had an issue transforming to a list but just ran it again reference another parameter list and it worked!! Thanks so much for the help, I will accept this as the solution.
