'Why not just use an option select with Text Labels' I know this can be done, however, I am trying to learn all aspects of the software. I am trying to transfer all my skills from other languages to this language just to see if it is possible to be done and not necessarily concerned with its efficiency at this point. Any knowledge learned from this inquiry can be applied to other situations in which I will need to use strings. Again, there is no documentation for how to use any of the ladder functions for strings.

Hello, I am new to Unilogic, and I have been through many of the unilogic tutorials, but I can't seem to find much documentation on working with strings. I want to write a program where the user types a string via the hmi and the logic of the program determines whether or not what was entered matches one of several options. For example, the options are 'red', 'yellow', 'blue'. The user types 'blue', and the program displays that they have selected blue (in a practical setting this could be linked to an action). Additionally, if the user makes and error and enters 'blur' instead of 'blue', the program shows an error.
