Marty,
I don't know if it's the fastest way, but here's one way to do it. Pass with
function your tab-delimited list and what you are looking to find in fields 1,3
and 4 and it will return a list of the lines numbers that match. Hope it
helps...
function getTheMatches tList,findThis
set
How about this:
--8-
repeat for each line myLine in myList
if matchText(myLine, \
([^\t]*)\t([^\t]*)\t([^\t]*)\t([^\t]*)$, \
myVar1, myVar2, myVar3, myVar4) then
if myVar1=foo and myVar3=bar and myVar4=baz then
-- take some action here
end if
Or with filter
I setup a stack with a list field and 4 search fields, 1 search field for
each column, and added a search button.
--Search button code
on mouseUp
put field mylist into tMyList
repeat with i = 1 to 4
if field (field i) is empty then
put * into line i of tMerge
oops. Change the merge line to this for partial matches
filter tmyList with (merge(*[[line 1 of tMerge]]*[[tab]]*[[line 2 of
tMerge]]*[[tab]]*[[line 3 of tMerge]]*[[tab]]*[[line 4 of tMerge]]*))

Thanks to those who responded to this. I was doing something similar to
Dan's idea, but wondered if there was a way to use lineOffset or
something else. I'll take a look at all the suggestions and continue on.
I wish I could wrap my brain around regex - it all looks like a cat

Remind me not to be in the same room when you tackle Objective-C...:^)

Huh. I knew I liked merge but didn't know why until now.
put merge([[kitty1]][[kitty2]]) into tCatfight
