Greetings, It evaluates true in the Immediate window likely because it is executing the "raw code" there.
You can't have a View command in the Rules tree view of a condition because it is being treated as a "literal value" In your case though, you don't need it. Change the Condition in the Rules GUI to be: mess...@*,*,none fo...@*,* Note, I could have included the exact locations of the text none found mess...@*,*,none fo...@3,9 But I prefer with error messages like this to use the wildcard. Make this change, and you'll be all set. Call support if you have questions. Regards, Thom Thom C.

The message box is active, and I have verified the text from the view command in the immediate window. But the rule is evaluated as false. I'm sure to have overlooked something simple. Any suggestions?
