Have struggled with this problem for a long time. Is it possible in FileMaker Pro to check every word

in a text field in one database against single-word entries in another database and identify matches?

All words in the original text field that matched would ideally be highlighted or bolded to indicate match.

Additonally, I would like to link from each highlighted word to corresponding fields in another database.

Is there a plug-in that might get me anywhere close to this kind of functionality?

Thanks.

well...you could use the calc leftword(textfield,1) in a seperated field and make a relation to the other database. But it's a lot of work and not dinamacly...so basicly...there is no solution for;(
