HI,
I am having a very newbie problem.
I am reading an Access database with ODBC and have my data read into

$Data{STATE}

My problem is now I need to match to 16 different states.



I have so far

If ( $Data{STATE} eq "MA" )

Process data


My question is should I use an array to test against and how to code it?

??-
@state="MA CI DE IN OH";

Thank you for anyhelp
