I need to keep a variable with the names of horses that I bet on. I was using 'set variable' set to storednames+sel_name every time a new horse is added. I am then using FIND("sel_name", "storednames") to see if a bet has been made, (if result is >0). However I am encountering a problem with spaces being removed from the horses name when adding it to the variable but not when using sel_name in the FIND expression and thus the name is not found. Can you offer any suggestions? Thanks
