+,*,?,# but it is not piciking the right posting rule, also search string use is also activated. so please guide me.
Many Thanks
Sam Rathod.

Hi
Try keeping the 1st two digits of search string as b;ank. i.e. ############ (12 digits) mapped to __##########. I used underscore to denote balnk space. Using this when you recevie say 000000001618 (12 digits), it will be mapped to 0000001618 (10 digits). Then your interpretation algo will use this 10 digit number.
Thanks

Open file using wild cards

does anyone know how to open a file using wild cards in the name.
For example, a certain folder will contain a number of files, with the name constructed as follows:
CALDB_ then a 6 digit serial number, and then 14 characters which could be ANYTHING. so it might look like this
CALDB_123456_33KA1234567890.txt
or
CALDB_123457_33KA1234567890.txt
The key part of the file name is the 6 digit serial number which is unique, and the CALDB_ which is always the same.
I would like to use a file open command with the file name something like CALDB_123456_*.txt, but it doesn't appear to work.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
Solved!

Hi Dylan,
I have been searching along our forum, and found a similar question for using wildcards in selecting files. An active user (unclebump) replied on this request with a VI, with which you can select a folder on your computer which is scanned for certain files. I've adjusted this VI for selecting the CALDB_* files. Enclosed you will find this file (zipped) including my test folder.
Maybe this will be helpfull for your application.
Best regards,
Peter Schutte

Posting rule to be specified in target field of mapping area/Mapping prefix in Search string use?

Posting rule change using search string configuration
Hello Friends - I have defined Search string and specified Posting rule in target field of mapping area and set up done on Search search use tab.
When I imported the Statement, based on text found on statement, Posting rule specified in Search string is determined.
I see Search strings already maintained in my system that Posting rule is maintained in Search string use tab - Mapping prefix.
My doubt is that if Posting rule can be maintained in any of the below:
Either at Posting rule to be specified in target field of mapping area or Mapping prefix in Search string use?
Thanks

Hello Kalim - Thanks. I have already configured Search string the way you suggested me last time and imported the statement during testing. It is working fine.
Can you pls tell me in which scenario "mapping prefix field" should be maintained. Now, I will try to understand this from F1 help.
For Search Strings already defined in our System long ago that Posting rule is not specified in Target field in mapping field, but maintained Mapping prefix.
Thanks,

How to use wild card with variable in powershell

HI
i am trying to use wild card with variable but getting an error message, "You cannot call a method on a null-valued expression."
$src = 'C:\Temp'
$TabletzipPath = $src + "tab*.zip"
i would like to copy the tablet zip file which is placed in in $src to be copied in $TabletzipPath.
i am using tab* because this file name changes continuously. so if i give a fix name for example tablet1.zip than it works fine.

Not sure if the wildcard will work without seeing how you're using the variable.
That said, I can say that it looks like you're missing the backslash between the $src path and the wildcard filename. As-is the above code assigns a value to $TabletzipPath of "C:\temptab*.zip" instead of what you are likely expecting ("C:\temp\tab*.zip")

Using wild card with Captivate 5 ( fill in the blank)

I am training software package that requires many fill in the blanks besides the login screeen. If I were to recording the actions using Captivate 5 record, I think, I can only use a demonstration recording as oppsed to having my students interact with the product by filling in the blank. For example, my product asks for a login. When I login to demonstrate how it should be done, the product reponds correctly. By my student is limited to watching as opposed to interacting. While login is not such a big deal, there are several other areas where the same concept applies. Ideally, I wish to use wild cards in fill in the blank so that any name or information can be used to interact with Captivate and move the slide along. Is this possible, and if so, how?

I think Lilybiri may be misinterpreting your use of the term "wildcards" to mean using them in the programming sense.
Perhaps you are referring to the characters that appear in a typical Password field to hide what the user is actually typing?
If so, the text field object in Captivate has an option to use these password characters so that the user's typing characters are hidden. The characters used are asterisks, which are what some people refer to as wildcard characters.

How to define search string to update the encashment date in check register

HI experts,
I have an issue with the check . the check encashment date is not getting updated . we are using electronic bank statement and the bank statement files are MT940 format . the EBS is working fine but in case of check payment we receive a 12 digit check number i.e ( 000000001618) in the MT940 files where as in the SAP system we have maintained check lot with a 10 digit number i.e ( 0000001618) i have already defined the interpretation algorithm and the search string but the search string only works when i change the sap system check lot to 12 digits as per the MT940 files. How can i define a search string to clear the 12 digits check number in MT940 with the 10 digit in system so that it get cleared and the check encashment date get updated in check information .
could anyone help me .
Thanks

EBS Auto Subledger posting - Search String

Hi
Can any one give some detail on how. EBS - Search string config work.
requirement is that on customer is paying in a single payment for different invoices.
all the invoice numbers are quoted in the FINSTA, can we make FINSTA work to automatch all the invoice numbers coming in Bank statement through Search string or in some other way.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Kalyan

Kalyan,
For your scenario, the search string configuration won't work. Search string is usually meant to change the assignment of transaction code, cost center, profit center, etc a bit different than the configuration.
For your situation, you need to make use of user-exits, wherein you can search for open items which can be cleared based on your specified criteria.
Enhancement FEB00001 available in standard SAP can be made use of for your purposes.

How to use wild card character in input field

Hi
I'm creating model in which the Purchase Order information need to be entered in Input Field.
My requirement is search using wild char char as '*'
Let say in input field i gave PO order as 20* then it'll search for all the PO's which starts from 20.
Could you please share some documents/guidelines, for this issue
Thanks and Regards
Puneet

Hi,
You can use the wild card char in the input box.please try below steps.
1.Check whether the input string has ' * ' char using "CONTAINS(text,pattern)" operation.
2.If yes, Replace the ' * ' with space by "REPLACE(text,pattern,repstr)" operation.->consider this result as input2
3.Now , Have a Filter from ur webservice(which gives your Purchase Order information )
and filter it by the condition " BEGINS(WSField,input2)"
the Final expression in the filter will be "_=IF(CONTAINS(input,""),BEGINS(HelpWSField,REPLACE(input,"\","")),true)_"
Hope it helps.
Regards,
Priya

How to split a string using IndexOf?

How would you split a string using indexOf and not using the .split method?
Any help is appreciated :D
Message was edited by:
billiejoe

would it be better to use the first or the second?
int indexOf(int ch)
Returns the index within this string of the first occurrence of the specified character.
int indexOf(int ch, int fromIndex)
Returns the index within this string of the first occurrence of the specified character, starting the search at the specified index.
I think the second would be helpful. so how do i read it?

EBS execute order mutiple search string hit

Hello,
For different macthing purposes i have implemented several search strings.
For example 1800#### and 206#####.
Both work well, but sometime the note to payee information contains info that matches both search strings.
Does the possibility exsist to 'rank' the action in case of multiple serach string matches?
Greetings,
Pascal

I am not aware of any way to rank search strings. My best advice is to find additional characters in the note to payee to help make the search strings more unique. For example, the note to payees containing 1800#### that should hit the search string, might always have the same characters before or after the 1800#### - and those characters aren't in the note to payees that you don't the search string to hit on.
For example, the note to payees that should hit for 1800#### might have ABC 1800#### - and others have EFG 1800####. You could create the search string as ABC 1800#### - and just map ABC to blank (space). Then the items with EFG 1800#### won't hit the search string.
If the static text is not right before or immediately after the 1800####, you can use ? in the search string to represent unknown characters. Again, you would map ? to blank (space). For example, if the note to payee one day might have ABCDE 12345 1800#### and then next day it has ABCDE 45678 1800#### - you could set up the search string as ABCDE???????1800#### - with ABCDE??????? all mapped to blank. Instead of multiple ?'s, you can also use ?* to represent an unknown number of unknown characters. For the previous example the search string would be ABCDE?1800#### with ABCDE? all mapped to blank. The search string ABCDE?*1800#### will also work if the number of characters between ABCDE and 1800#### varies from day to day. For example, it would also produce a hit for ABCDE vvv 1800#### and ABCD yyyy 1800####.
All of my examples are for static characters prior to 1800#### - but the techniques will also work for static characters after 1800#### - or static characters before and after 1800####.

Shannon

How to make search string for the searched text containing single quote?

Hi all,
When trying to search some Contacts from Eloqua, I have to make a search string which would list out some specified EmailAddress.
Unfortunately, I meet several emails who have single quote in their spelling.
I got 'invalid format' error when both using them directly and making single quote twice.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Biao

When testing, the following examples:
GET /Api/rest/1.0/data/contacts?search=emailAddress=bm'[email protected]
GET /Api/rest/1.0/data/contacts?search='emailAddress=bm'[email protected]'
GET /Api/rest/1.0/data/contacts?search=emailAddress="bm'[email protected]"
GET /Api/rest/1.0/data/contacts?search="emailAddress=bm'[email protected]"
All return:
"elements":
    "type":"Contact",
    "id":"1421620",
    "createdAt":"1419611518",
    "depth":"minimal",
    "name":"bm'[email protected]",
    "updatedAt":"1419611519",
    "emailAddress":"bm'[email protected]"
"page":1,
"pageSize":1000,
"total":1
Likewise, the following returns nothing:
GET /Api/rest/1.0/data/contacts?search=emailAddress='bm'[email protected]'
Hopefully this helps,

You have to highlight the string yourself. Try using:
textArea.setSelectionStart( int );
textArea.setSelectionEnd ( int );
