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.
