Multiple Conditionals with Operator "Contains"

Hello All

Say we have an article stored in a variable, and we want to check if it contains 10 specific words.

How do we do it?

EDIT: As an added example, this is working with 1 condition:

IF Contains(articlevar, $'''word1''', True) THEN

How do we add more words?

There might be a better solution, but until you have one, you could do nested ifs:

If %Var% contains “word1”
If %Var contains “word2”
If %var contains “word 3”
… through “word 10”
‘Do something
…End (from If “word 10”)
End
End
End
