Folks,
I’m trying to filter a list of comma-delimited values to include only the lines that contain a string - somewhere in any of the items.
What’s wrong with this syntax - it’s currently returning no lines when I can see tString in the second line of the variable?
filter lines of tList with "*[" & tString & "]*"
I’m guessing my concatenation fails to create good regex?
TIA
Keith
