	FYI you do not need the if - then for it to evaluate Also the LIKE operator is usually used with a ? and/or * to look for items that are partial matches verses the IN which is a full match if you want to keep your curretn syntax itr would be if ({OBJECTS.OBJECTTYPE}) like ["LEVEL","FIRE","LOCAL"] then true else false These both do the same thing though ({OBJECTS.OBJECTTYPE}) like ["LEVEL","FIRE","LOCAL"] or ({OBJECTS.OBJECTTYPE}) IN ["LEVEL","FIRE","LOCAL"]
