strfind more than one string

[ok1397]

Hello everyone, need help with this script. I transfer file using ftp, my problem is that i have a dialog box that prompts the user for a date. The file that needs to be searched contains the following: DCR0721051 which (072105) is the date so the strfind needs to search for "DCR" and the date (072105) which is entered using a text box I called (TextStr1), strfind sLine("DCR",TextStr1)
does not work, any ideas ?????????????

Thank you for your help !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a couple different scripts on my sample page that may do what you want. Search for mstrfind and you will see the two scripts. The first version I wrote just let you know that one of the strings you were looking for was found, the second one returns that actual string. I'm not sure they will work as-is for what you want, but hopefully it's a good starting point.

well i finally got it to work here's the piece of code that worked for me, hope it helps anyone with the same issue....

if not nullstr TextStr1 ;If text box is not blank
if not nullstr sData ;If line is not blank
if strfind sData "DCR" ;Search for file that starts with "DCR"
if strfind sData TextStr1 ;Search for String in textbox entered by user
ftp remote copyfile sData
while $FTPSTATUS ;Loop while file is being copied
yield
endwhile
strfmt sNewFile "%s_%02d%02d%d" sData ;Format file name to (DCRDDMMYY)
strcat sNewFile ".TXT" ;Convert to text file
ftp LOCAL rename sData sNewFile ;Rename Downloaded file to date searched as .TXT format
pause 1
endif
endif
endif
endif
endwhile
