Paul, the filter command may need some wildcards, otherwise it will
filter out any lines which contain more than just the filter
expression, so:
filter pSnips with "*" & tThing & "*"
Best,
Mark

I am having a problem with 'filter'.
I'm passing this tab & return delimited data (as an array)...
*SAMPLE* 7/2/09 2 We don't ship kitties to Hong Kong
No dogs 7/2/09 1 we don't do dogs
This one 7/2/09 3 This one is that oneAnd this one has
paragraphs in
the field.
using this command
put justThese(gSnips,1) into tList
to this function:
function justThese pSnips,pWhich
combine pSnips by return and tab
put tab&pWhich&tab into tThing
filter pSnips with tThing
split pSnips by return and tab
return the keys of pSnips
end justThese
which always returns empty because the filter command always puts
empty back into the variable.
What am I missing?
I confirmed that the error still occurs without the numToChar(8)
(which apparently won't show up here), which I'm using to swap out CRs
in that third record.
