Check if series is member of group

[fboehlandt]

Hi everyone

What?
what is the quickest check to see whether or not a series is a member of a group?

Why?
I have a routine that adds series to a group. An inner loop is executed only if the series was not previoulsy added to the group

Where?
In EViews 7 (build 7.2)

Looping throught the group members takes long so I was hoping there is some fucntion that parses the series names of the group stored as a text string.

Any input is grealty appreciated

Thanks

Put the group members into a string using group.@members. Then use @wfind.
