Hi I was wondering how you can find a pattern in text ONLY from the begining of the text. I have for example the string 3.1.1 and I want it to say "true" when matching with the string 3.1.1.23.43.5 but NOT with string 5.4.3.1.1.43.5.3 how can you do this in Filemaker Calculation?

Regards Jocke

Try:

Position ( text ; searchString ; 1 ; 1 ) = 1




or:





Left ( text ; Length ( searchString ) ) = searchString
