find string within a string
Posted: Aug 24th, '17, 11:06
I'm having problems in consistently testing if a string exists within another string
Sometimes the contains block in the Data category is happy to play and give me a true/false output
But other times it complains that it doesn't like the data types and throws an error
for the moment - I've just written a simple shared block that returns either 0 or the position of the substring inside the main string but I feel that this should be an inbuilt function
