Looping through list, searching for text

If i am looping through a list and trying to find the text I am looking for to make a selection statement, how would i achieve that?
<cfif text="TheTextI'mLookingFor></cfif>?

you would use Find of FindNoCase function.

  • FTP List search for file in XI JavaMapping

    I wonder if anyone has ever done a JavaMap in XI with a FTP List search for e.g. filename*.xml
    With the standard FTP URLstring there is no ‘*’ possible within the filename.
    I have not found any documentation on this, how to do a FTP search for filename*.xml within a JavaMap.
    This JavaMap works fine for picking up a file with the exact filename:
    Do you know how to change the code to do this FTP list?
    Thanks for any hints,

    well, i think the best solution would be make a recursive search through the directory tree. I don't know if you are familiar to this, but the functions that searches for the file would look like this:
    public String searchFile(String name) {
      File[] roots = File.listRoots();   // List all file roots (in windows the different units, c:, d:, etc.)
      for (int i = 0 ; i < roots.length() ; i++) {
        String aux = recursiveSearch(roots, name);
    if (aux != null) {   // If the "recursiveSearch" returns something different than null is that the file is founded, so we return the path.
    return aux;
    return null; // If we get there nothing has been found
    private String recursiveSearch(File f, String name) {   // f is the directory to search for the file with name "name"
    File[] childs = f.listFiles();
    for (int i = 0 ;i < childs.length ; i++) {
    if (childs[i].isDirectory()) {  // If that is a directory we search inside
    String aux = recursiveSearch(childs[i], name);
    if (aux != null) {   // We have found it inside this directory
    return aux;
    } else {  // Is a regular file
    if (name.compareTo(childs[i].getName()) == 0) {   // If the file is what we want we return his path
    return childs[i].getCanonicalPath();
    // If we get here is because the file is not inside the directory or any subdirectory on it
    return null;
    You should just call the function searchFile(name) with the name of the file you want to search. If it finds one with this name it will return his absolute path, and if he doesn't the desired file he will return null.
    If you don't understand anything just ask.
    (Note: i have not tested this code, so can be some mistakes, but it think it is almost correct. mmmhh don't now why, but [ & ] appear in my code as < & >. Just replace them.).
    Hope that helps.

  • Search for text and font

    I have an 800 page pdf document to index and so far I have a script that will search for a list of keywords. But the text has large sections of code in a different font, and I think we would like to generate an index of just code examples. Is there a way to search for text of a given font in applescript? Something like
    set theSel to find text theText
    if the font of theSel is "Times"
    write to file, etc.

    Please do send a page, I might be able to spot where the font problem is coming from - but no guarantee Address is in my profile.
    You asked about the script formatter. red_menace of this forum wrote the script I use. To use it, you copy the script that you want to format to the clipboard and run the formatter. This then places the marked-up text in the clipboard so that you can paste it into the forum page.

  • Editor: Annoying pop-up for choosing main programs when searching for text

    Hi,
    We're upgrading to ECC60 and are getting frustrated when searching for text in a source code within the ABAP editor.
    For every include contained in the main program you are searching in there is a pop-up asking to choose the main program for that include.
    This can get crazy when searching in a standard SAP program such as SAPMV45A. You'll have to process through 30-40 of these pop-up windows before your search results appear. I each pop-up you have to scroll though dozens of main programs to find the one you are doing the search in.
    Can this be turned of somehow to have the search functionality work as it did in previous version, where the Editor knows that the program you are launching the search from is the main program you want the results from?
    Thanks,
    Peter

    HI Peter
    Please check if program: <b>RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN</b> can help you...

  • Problems with searching for text in Preview

    Hi, everyone...I'm hoping someone can help me out with this. I have an old MBP with Tiger installed and Preview 3.0.9. I have attempted to search for words in numerous PDF files and the search function NEVER brings up the words even when I know the words are contained in the document. I read the Preview manual and I know I'm following the correct procedures in searching for text, but nothing seems to work. Can anyone help me out with what I may be doing wrong? Thanks!

    I can't picture what you could possibly be doing wrong, there's not much choice in the matter.
    The only time Searching fails here is if the text in the PDF is actually only a graphic of the text.
    Are these PDFs that you made? If so, what APP?
    If you down load this PDF, does Search work on it?

  • Searching for text containing diacritics (accents)

    iTunes doesn't find titles when searching for texts containing diacritics (like "âàéêèëîïôöûùü", in french). Even when a song title is copied and pasted in the search field, it is still not found. I get the same problem when I call the search from AppleScript. When searching for only the part before or the part after the diacritic, then iTunes does find something. I think it is a bug. Is there someone that knows what to do?

    Too bad the problem is back with the new iTunes 8.0. It is quite annoying since I got a lot of entries with those diacritics...

  • Dreamweaver cs5.5 opening files after searching for text code

    This just occured this afternoon.  I was working on a page and when I went to search for text in the code (ie "/head") dreamweaver would open a previously opened page.  In other words I was working on "walk.php" and when I did the search for "/head", dreamweaver opens "add_rsurvey_data.txt".  I know what the 2nd file is but I haven't opened it in months.  It's just a temp data file that my partner sent me.
    I'm using cs5.5
    Adobe will not help me.

  • "Search for text" Zooms when number keys pressed. Expecting it to FIND text

    For months I have been using (&relying on) the "search for text when I start typing " feature.
    I am a school teacher & this helps me to search for students & record scores in an online grading program.
    The "search for text when I start typing feature" stopped working two days ago.
    Before, whenever I typed the "Find" box immediately opened up, searched the screen,
    and highlighted whatever I had just typed. Now, when I enter a "1", "2" , "6" , "9" or "0" (zero)
    the find box does not come up- so this disrupts all the grade recording process for me.
    Instead, when I type in 6 or 9 (it zooms in the screen instead), 0 (it zooms out instead) and I cannot tell what happens
    when I type in 1 or 2 (nothing appears to happen- but no "Find" box comes up.

    Please help!
    Thanks,

    The keyboard shortcut for resetting the zoom level is Command+0, so seeing that kind of response implies that Firefox is misreading the state of the Command key, thinking it is stuck down. Usually tapping the key numerous times will send a signal to all programs that the key has been released (at least on Windows).
    On the other hand, in that case, Command+6 should jump to the sixth tab in the current window, it shouldn't change the zoom level. So... hmm...
    In case a component of the OS has malfunctioned, have you already tried shutting down the system completely and then starting it up again?

  • Spotlight search for text messages not working

    After upgrading to ios8, I discovered that the spotlight search for text messages only "sees" my last two texts but not any of the others I have on my phone. These are all active conversations, not deleted messages.  Any ideas how to fix?  Thanks.

    I Fixed mine by going to setting->General->Sptolight and unchecking "messages", exiting the function then returning and rechecking "messages".

  • I have checked "Search for text when I start typing" but it is not happening since your latest update.

    I have checked “Search for text when I start typing” but it is not happening since your latest update. This is very important to me as I keyboard - not use the mouse. What can I do? Also, before the last update I could leave the window (alt+tab) and return and just type and it would type it is the search box. Now I have to take my hand off the keyboard and get the mouse three times for every search, slowing my work way, way down. What other flag do I need to put this back the way it was? Should I also remove the “Automatically check for updates” so that this will not happen again? Please, please help.

  • Is there a way to Search (List search) for more then one field text from a column for Bulk uploading?

    I've been trying to find more information on this and I apologies if this has already been answered. I just don't know the correct way to ask this. We have a SharePoint List at the company that we have people input information into different columns. The
    problem is most of those information are very repetitive. Is there a way for me to search more then one field text in the column and just input that same information in?
    ex:
    Column 1
    Column 2
    Date:
    883851
    MidWest
    User input 
    8831518
    MidWest
    User input
    On the search field in the SharePoint List, I would need to search for 883851, 8831518 etc,  would view those requested numbers, then I would click edit and change dates to those rows. Does that make sense? I'm sorry I'm fairly new at sharepoint.

    I think what you're asking is about having repetitive options in a list, show up easily for new items being created.
    This can be done by setting the columns that contain repetitive information to Choice fields.  In the configuration of the Choice field, check the box for "Allow custom values".  Now as users are entering data into the list, the dropdown of options
    for a given field grows and users can quickly see and select previously entered and thus repetitive values for the given fields.
    I trust that answers your question...
    Thanks

  • Iphone 5 not searching for text messages correctly anymore?

    If i type in 'Tim' to search for a text message from 'Tim' the search does not bring up tim's messages in the results, although it may randomly show some messages that have Tim in the written text of the messages??
    But if i scroll down through the messages themselves without using the search tool, Tims messages are there!?
    This isnt just for one person, it seeems to happen randomly for different names etc, As in i have a few friends by the name of Mark, yet when searching it may only bring up one of them...
    Not sure if I have explained myself very well, but hopefully somebody will get the jist and be able to help!!

    If you only have that much (little) space left it is likely the database on the phone is unable to continue indexing your messages.   I would strongly suggest that you start offloading some older messages and remove from your phone to free up space.   At the minimum, delete some attachments after saving them to camera roll/backup.
