In this select box, there are 2 items that have the word Sector in it:

 

1) GICS Sector

2) Sector

 

I am trying to select the item "Sector", but I keep getting "GICS Sector" because it appears before "Sector".

I think \A should match the beginning of a string but this doesn't seem to work.  Any ideas?

 

irb(main):009:0> ie.frame("customizeRemoteContent").select_list(:id, "availableColumnsSelectBox").select(/\ASector/)
