RE: compare column value to anything in a list of values

[Jay Blanchard]

[snip]
IN('value1','value2') should work for exact matches, also works for
integer values.

IN will not open and read his CSV file...

[snip]
Is there a simple function or method to compare a value in a column to
one or more items in a comma separated list?
[/snip]

In order to do this you are going to use a programming language or
scripting language. For PHP you could put the values from the CSV list
in an array and the use IN to compare against that array.
