Hello, I subscribed to get some support with RegexPlugIn for Filemaker.
I successfully installed RegexPlugIn in Filmaker 7 (on Windows XP).
Evaluate ("RegP_Version" ) results in "0.2.1", so the plugin is basically working. What is not working is pretty much everything else:
I have made a testing database which I attach. It has three fields: target function result
The second record of this databse is like this: target: something function: RegP_Replace ( "o" ; target; "xxx") result: ?
But as result I expected sxxxmething.
What am I doing wrong?
You're not doing anything wrong, you're just seeing a peculiarity of FileMaker. Edit the "function" field (e.g. add a space at the end and delete it again) and you should see the correct result - at least that works for me.
Jens can explain this better than me (I'm not a FileMaker expert), but I would guess there's an FAQ entry for this.
HTH, Edi.
