if>string contains

[Scones]

Hi.

I want to make a formula that does this:

If string contains "this text" then do this.

This is my line atm.

If>DesiredChange=Inside dim

I'm basically looking for something to replace the "=" so it isn't 100% equal. I just want to know if the text appears in the string.

I tried using the * that works on things like window titles, but it doesn't seem to work here

Will regex be necessary?

Thanks in advance!

Does something like the script below do what you need? It takes a string, in this case FishCatDog, and looks for Cat. If it finds Cat, it changes it to Horse. If it doesn't, nothing is changed.

Code: Select all

Let>MyString=FishCatDog

Pos>Cat,MyString,1,PosCat,

If>PosCat>1
  StringReplace>MyString,Cat,Horse,MyString
Endif

MessageModal>MyString

@Scones,
Does this work for you?

Code: Select all

let>MyText=That darn cat keeps barking all night long.


let>FindThis=cat
RegEx>FindThis,MyText,0,match,nom,0


if>nom>0
   RegEx>FindThis,MyText,0,match,nom,1,dog,res
endif

mdl>%res%

Do you not like RegEx? You can skin a cat, including this one, in many ways.

Good Luck,
