Can someone please advise how can I find half character string in Array. I have tried with %lookup but doesn't work for half string. And %scan doesn't work for entire array, it actually works index basis. I am stuck it would be great if someone can advise on this. Thank you.

Thanks. We'll let you know when a new response is added.

Try something like this

EVAL      EndPosition = %SCAN(‘scanvalue ‘ : fieldname : starting position)

If end comes back 0 then value not found.
