I created a text file that contained the following: c:\hsadfhosaf e:\jdosaijdfpjsa d:\djfphsapf f:\sdfoisuhdf c:\sdjfoisjfp d:\sdfoisf d:\shdfosha
and when I rean the exact code I gave you with contains, I got three lines back. If you want to get lines that are exact matches to d:\, then make certain that your file contains some lines that contain ONLY d:\ Because if I run my code as EQ instead of CONTAINS., I get NO lines printed. This is the best I can do without seeing your exact txt file to know what you are starting with. ----- Original Message ----- From: "FlashGuy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, September 03, 2002 9:31 AM Subject: Re: Checking variable within CFLOOP > Yea...I get the same results? > > > On Tue, 3 Sep 2002 09:20:05 -0500, Larry Juncker wrote: > > > Have you tried > > > > cfif Line CONTAINS "d:\"> > > #Line# > > </cfif> > > </cfoutput> > > > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: "FlashGuy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Sent: Tuesday, September 03, 2002 9:11 AM > > Subject: Checking variable within CFLOOP > > > > > > > Hi, > > > > > > I'm reading in a file and need to check and output only the lines that > > contain "d:\".
