Mighty Scripters.
In wanting to first isolate and reprocess the textual, and also numeric Caller
ID Numeric components, of a mixed line containing firstly a 3 digit number,
that's ok as this is constant, then a couple of words that I need to isolate, ,
then sometimes, not always though, a bunch of numbers as a Caller ID at the end
of these lines, with nothing but what jaws speaks as, Blank, or character 0 if
you queery it, between these 3 separate components as known delimiters,
well, A much more advanced scripter friend of mine pulled me out of trouble
bybuilding a little function of his own which annilizes whether a given string
contains numeric components or not. And I hope to test this tomorrow, now that
I've finally formed up all the processing around text it needs to look for in
the Text String status component section, of these lines.
etc.
However, it occurred to me, to wanna ask, well,
you know how the StringContains BuiltIn,
returns the starting position in a given string, where the second parameter
string your searching for, starts to match,
well, I wondered, whether any fancy dude up here, may've ever divined some
magic code/way, of, say, building something which could return the number of
the ending position of such a string as well?
Would not others find this a handy feature to have sometimes?
I just wondered eh.
Thanks for any thoughts.
