| Based on the latest information you provided, you're not going to get any simpler than three INSPECT statements. |

do this in one INSPECT
If input is
'HAI cust ac NO = 21212212,cNAME = sbi,cUST = 333'.
| Code: |
inspect ws-name1 replacing
characters by "x" after initial "cust ac NO = " before
initial ",c"
characters by "x" after initial "cNAME = " before
initial ",cU"
characters by "x" after initial "CUST = "
|
but here you have to make sure the before clause changes for each replacing ...it should not be the same ...for No use before ',c' for name add one more letter to the before clause and do not forget to put a before clause for cUST or else the entire string till the max will be filled with "X"
so is cUST is the last in the data use before initial space [/code] |

Hai ,
Some times the text contains different naming conventions like
CUST ACCCOUNT NUMBER (or) CUST AC NO (OR) CUST NO.etc..
so is there any other way in one INSPECT command... like by using OR (or) AND type ...please let me know...
Many thanks in ADVANCE.... |

instead of using literals in the INSPECT command syntax,
use variables
(personally, I would table everything),
and loop thru one (1) <there, you won your stupid bet>
INSPECT command,
modifying the variables before each invocation. |
