I have set the variable “alpha” with the value

“580c0b78-579e-4a54-9945-4e1d2b0a44deOttobre,580c0b78-579e-4a54-9945-4e1d2b0a44deDicembre,d97f6b7c-a53d-4174-855a-b64c369e5a5eDicembre,494039b8-f34d-4a39-bc4f-3866599edba9Ottobre,580c0b78-579e-4a54-9945-4e1d2b0a44deOttobre,580c0b78-579e-4a54-9945-4e1d2b0a44deDicembre,d97f6b7c-a53d-4174-855a-b64c369e5a5eDicembre, **494039b8-f34d-4a39-bc4f-3866599edba9Ottobre** ,1c69f897-9942-4ee0-946c-78e79769cb4aNovembre,1c69f897-9942-4ee0-946c-78e79769cb4aNovembre,03b79799-cfcd-46d1-bb25-78299ad081c5Novembre,03b79799-cfcd-46d1-bb25-78299ad081c5Novembre,7389b1ba-7071-4235-a976-8606e9366aeaNovembre,7389b1ba-7071-4235-a976-8606e9366aeaNovembre,1c69f897-9942-4ee0-946c-78e79769cb4aDicembre,1c69f897-9942-4ee0-946c-78e79769cb4aDicembre”

I have another variable “beta” set with “494039b8-f34d-4a39-bc4f-3866599edba9Ottobre”

How can I have a variable “gamma” setted “true” that inform me that the value in “beta” is present in “alpha”?

Grazie!

You need to use this text block -

![2023-11-10 10 11 49](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/1/a/1a47490fc4434c415c65294d1f802f77b8c05f3a.png)

Replace “abc” with variable alpha and “b” with beta.

If True, set variable gamma to true, else set to false.
