Please ignore this post. I seem to be suffering from a major brain
cramp today. :-)
The filter does indeed work as expected. Sorry to bother everyone.

Can anyone tell me why this isn't working?
I've got a field with contents like this:
1.0[tab]3[tab]0[tab]3
1.3[tab]1[tab]0[tab]1
1.5[tab]2[tab]0[tab]2
2.0[tab]5[tab]0[tab]5
3.0i[tab]50[tab]0[tab]50
4.5c[tab]1[tab]0[tab]1
8.0[tab]10[tab]0[tab]10
Where [tab] = an actual tab character. I want to apply a filter
like this:
filter tLevelInfoTemp with (item 1 of tLicense & tab & "*")
The variable tLevelInfoTemp contains the contents of the field,
where "item 1 of tLicense" would contain one of the values in the
first column of the field contents (1.0, 1.3, 1.5, etc.). For some
reason the above filter does not work. I get an empty string
returned. It seems like I've used this kind of filter before and
had it work just fine, but maybe I'm wrong about that. If I remove
the tab from the filter, it sort of works. For example, if item 1
of tLicense is "3.0i", I do get back that line. However, if item 1
of tLicense is "3.0", I still get back the line starting with
"3.0i", which is not what I want.
So why is it I can't use the tab as part of the filter to help
identify the correct line? Or am I going about this filter thing
all wrong? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris
