Hi,

How can i compare to string / text to see if they are equals?

In fact what i want is to be able to see if for example that: "Hello" is different of "hello".
So the 'matchText' is not useful i think...

regards.

Hi,

You can prefix your regex with (?i), i.e: "(?i)HellO"
to be case insensitive.

In fact what i want is to be able to see if for example that: "Hello" is different of "hello".

and for this, you don't and "HellO' should not match "hello"

Or did I miss something?

Hi Thierry,

Thanks for your answer!

In fact i need to compare what i wrote in one field with what i have in one variable that i am reading from one database...

So my question was how to compare the text of field "FldPassword" with the variable MyPassword.

if the text of field "FldPassword" is not MyPassword then


end if

So if i understood well, this should work?

if the text of field "FldPassword" is not (?¡)MyPassword then


end if

Regards.

Umm, my answer was specific to matchText(), matchChunk() or replaceText() functions.

In your case, you only need to add a statement:
