hello,
I would like to delete the lines of a table, when the VAriable contains some specific chains of characters.
if NIEDERLASSUNGBEZ_BT contains ('GRM', 'CoC', 'NL MS') then delete;
how can I correct this?
thanks in advance
Use the index() function:
if index(NIEDERLASSUNGBEZ_BT,'GRM') or index(NIEDERLASSUNGBEZ_BT,'CoC') or index(NIEDERLASSUNGBEZ_BT,'NL MS') then delete;
or simplifiy this to a subsetting if:
if not ( index(NIEDERLASSUNGBEZ_BT,'GRM') or index(NIEDERLASSUNGBEZ_BT,'CoC') or index(NIEDERLASSUNGBEZ_BT,'NL MS') );

thank you very much and have a nice day.
