String Contains a Specific Word?
Hello and thank you for such a great product! :)
I'm trying find a quick and easy way to determine if a string contains a specific word. Is there? :?
What I'd like to do is see if the data with a variable contains a specific word and if it does, I don't want to print it to the output file. If it doesn't, then I want it to be printed.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Great Stuff! It's working perfectly!
I have very little programming knowledge, but a great sense of logic (IMO :lol:)
Thanks for the info!

Hi,
Yes, they can. I'm not familiar with your programming background, but if you'd like more information on Java you might try Sun's tutorial http//java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/index.html . Also bear in mind that, if you're more familiar with them, you can script in another language, such as VBScript or JavaScript.
Best,

Another ?
Can IF ELSE statements be nested?
IF
{
//
}
ELSE
{
IF
{
//
}
ELSE
{
//
}
}

Hi Joey,
It will depend on what language you're scripting in. If you're using the default, Interpreted Java, you would do that like this:
myStr = "This is my string.";if( myStr.indexOf( "my" )!=-1 )
{
// Perform logic needed if the string is found.
}
else
{
// The string is not found.
}
Hopefully that helps. If not, feel free to post a reply.
Kind regards,
