Hi David,
Bob is right. Lets enhance the FIELD function to accept a string
delimiter
and not just a single character.
A nice idea but it has to be a new function because FIELD() is defined as
using only the first character of the supplied delimiter.
Because an enhancement such as this is unlikely to appear in time to resolve
the original poster's problem, it should be possible to work around the
issue by replacing all of the multi-character delimiters with some single
character that would never appear in the data and then using FIELD() with
this as the delimiter.
I cannot remember whether Unidata supports CHANGE() in I-types. For some
strange reason UniVerse does not.
