In InfoAssist (7.7.03) is it possible to have a user enter a list into a prompt -- for example have a prompt where the user will enter a list of customer numbers - seperated by something (too many to use a list of values from dynamic or static)

I'm in IA8, but I believe this works for IA7.7 as well; you can use ' OR ' as a seperator:

value1' OR 'value2' OR 'value3' OR 'value4

This does not work with IA 7.7 - when user enters values with OR between, gets input length grater than field

I'm surprised it didn't work in 7.7 - did you include the quotes and spaces?
(no quote at the start, spaces between quotes and OR, no quote at the end)

Just to recap - when using simple text input and you want to enter multiple values, the separator between the values is ' OR '
