Can you use an If statement to set a variable?

Hi,
I wanted to use an IF statement to set a variable but don't know if it would work properly.

I want to test if a user belongs to a certain secgroup or not and if they do then
set a variable to TRUE and if they don't then set it to FALSE.

This is to change the PERSISTENT value when mapping network drives via logon script.

IF (SecGroupObj.Name) = "WorkstationUsers" THEN
PERSISTENT = TRUE
ELSE
PERSISTENT = FALSE
END IF

Then the string will be used in the

oNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "I:", "\\server\ADMIN",PERSISTENT

line
This is because when laptop users leave the LAN they get problems trying to browse to or attach files because their mapped drives are persistent.
Thanks

Which problem do you have with your posted code ?

I just wanted to know if it should be okay to work.
I wasn't sure if you can actually do this or not. When I tried it it still set everything as persistent. However, maybe this is because I had the condition in the wrong spot.
