Description
User in group returns TRUE if user is in group.

Example
The following example searches for specific invoices. If the current user is in the Executive group, he or she is allowed access to forms that display confidential information. If the user is not in the Executive group, a different form is displayed:
QUERY([Invoices];[Invoices]Retail>100)
If(User in group(Current user(4D user account);"Executive"))
//4D user account parameter is necessary if you
//use 4D user aliases in your application
FORM SET OUTPUT([Invoices];"Executive Output")
FORM SET INPUT([Invoices];"Executive Input")
Else
FORM SET OUTPUT([Invoices];"Standard Output")
FORM SET INPUT([Invoices];"Standard Input")
End if
MODIFY SELECTION([Invoices];*)
