DeFactos Posted February 7, 2011 Posted February 7, 2011 Let's say that we have two line of text. 12:04 Hey how's it going??? 12:05 Fine thanks. You??? Now I want to compare that one with this one. thanks. If you have any idea it would be great thanks in advance.
Moderators Melba23 Posted February 7, 2011 Moderators Posted February 7, 2011 DeFactos,A simple If structure will do it: $sText_1 = "12:04 Hey how's it going???" & @CRLF & _ "12:05 Fine thanks. You???" $sText_2 = "thanks." If $sText_1 = $sText_2 Then MsgBox(0, "Result", "They match!") Else MsgBox(0, "Result", "They do NOT match!") EndIfOr is that too simple an answer?

somdcomputerguy Posted February 7, 2011 Posted February 7, 2011 Maybe this function, http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/functions/StringCompare.htm, or this function, http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/functions/StringInStr.htm, helps to do what you want. Your post isn't exactly clear about what you do want though. - Bruce /*somdcomputerguy */ If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.
DeFactos Posted February 7, 2011 Author Posted February 7, 2011 I need to test if "thanks." is located in the text.
somdcomputerguy Posted February 7, 2011 Posted February 7, 2011 Oh I see, you'll probably want to use the StringInStr function then. - Bruce /*somdcomputerguy */ If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.
