Hi List Members,
I have a field with inconsistently delimited data. I want to
extract specific data from the field, and each occurrence of this data
follows immediately after the word "sequence", which appears many times.
What's the best way to cycle through the field to pick up

Sometimes we say "The devil is in the details" when the "fine print" of

and never within the body of a chunk.
2) "sequence" always appears as a word

If the reality is different, make adjustments accordingly.

Why not have the directory property list several directories, with MetaCard
searching for files from the first directory to the last.
You should be able to use the offset(), wordOffset(), or itemOffset()
functions. To find the position of the character following the word
"sequence," you'll need to do something like offset("sequence",tVar)
+ 8. Then you'll need to determine the length of the text string, if
it varies from
