This worked great, I found that I had to grab a bigger chunk from the main file and add line numbers to the end result into fld "results" and get: 0' "RmArray" 1StartArray = Array( _ 2 "edit-1", "edit-2", "edit-3", "edit-4", "edit-5", _ 3 "edit-6", "edit-7", "edit-8", "edit-9", "edit-00", _ 4 "endof", "of", "the", "list", "") 5' "endRmArray" I'm working to remove the not needed lines*0,1,4,5 and display in a numbered column list for user to select the lines they need to edit, which I can do. Theres 5 "edit-*" per line,
Any suggestions on how to get each of the 5 "edit-*" into their individual fields from the selected row ? and thanks for you help Michael ------------------------------------- on getChunk put fld edits into sorce put empty into fld results put "(?si)(""e&"RmArray.*endRmArray.....)" into regExStr put matchchunk(sorce,regExStr,charPos1,charPos2) into success if success is true then put char charPos1 to charPos2 of sorce into dest else answer "did not find the edit string you were looking for" exit to top end if answer "your gift is behind door number 2" put dest into fld edits put fld edits into editsNum put empty into tDisplayData put 0 into tCounter repeat for each line L in editsNum put tCounter && L & cr after tDisplayData add 1 to tCounter end getChunk put tDisplayData into fld results -- breakpoint ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Ault" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "How to use Revolution" <use-revolution@lists.runrev.com> Sent: Tuesday, December 27, 2005 1:52 AM Subject: Re: Get from File > This works for me... > I used a quick stack with fld 1 and fld 2 and 1 button > ------- copy from here > on getChunk > put fld 1 into sorce > put "(?si)(""e&"edit-1.*edit-5.....)" into regExStr > put matchchunk(sorce,regExStr, charPos1,charPos2) into success > if success is true then > put char charPos1 to charPos2 of sorce into dest > else > answer "did not find the edit string you were looking for" > exit to top > end if > answer "your gift is behind door number 2" > put dest into fld 2 > breakpoint > end getChunk > ------------end copy > > > On 12/26/05 10:31 PM, "Michael D." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Greetings, > > I'm stuck on something here and looking for some advice with pulling this > > section from a text file(*.hta).
