Parse Multi-line box

Hello again,

I would like to paste a static chunk of text into a multi-line box and, on Trigger, have it take a substring from the first line and place it in my customer name field, then take the second line and have it place the phone number, third line, etc.

I see information in the manual about the substring and I think I can manage this, however is it possible for me to choose a particular line from the multiline box to do something to?

Cheers!

Rick

    You can use the function

    –––
    split(string, separator)
    –––

    to get the content of the mulitline field into an array.

    –––
    let myContent := split('multi-line box', "
    ")
    –––

    Then you can use

    –––
    item(array, index)
    –––
    wo get the seperate entries.

    So item(myContent, 0) would be the cusotmer name.
