I have a report created in Crystal Reports that needs to be scheduled so I am creating it in Business Objects. Because I need to pull out data from a text field, I planned to use the INSTR function which worked fine in Crystal. BO's is giving me an error that says it's not supported.

What are my options for either coding INSTR so that BO's likes it or for pulling out data (that is not always in the same position or the same length) from a text field.

Thank you!

Did you look into the POS function of BO?
