Selection set question

[Don Coleman]

I have a select table which builds a selection set in a file via an ascii
export and then runs system to generate a report using the exported
selection set.  My problem is one of the selection set's criteria is
facility code (field #9).  As this customer adds on new customers they have
begun to use facility codes which have the first several characters the same
(ex: IY, IYCC, IYCS, IYCJ).  The application is making a match on what it
can and is selecting more than the one I really want, in this case facility
code IY.  I don't have much control over the facility code, as it enters
filePro via import and socket connections from two alien applications.  The
relevant portion of the select table is below.  Is there a way to have the
selection set make only exact matches?
