I am wondering whether there is such a thing as a hand held scanner (wired to a workstation) can be programmed to generate a random number or character string. Our use is very basic as far as scanning, but would like to save data entry time on one particular field. We would like the ability for...

Thanks so much. I altered it a bit. This is what I am using: if left({SO_21LineItemExtDescriptions.ExtdDesc1},instr({SO_21LineItemExtDescriptions.ExtdDesc1},"=")) > "" then left({SO_21LineItemExtDescriptions.ExtdDesc1},instr({SO_21LineItemExtDescriptions.ExtdDesc1},"=")-1) else...

No, that does not work. Here is the string with the 1st formula. "Custom Hoods Description for customer to see =" Here is the string with the 2nd formula. "el = CONTINENTAL" Here is the string with no formula. "Custom Hoods Description for customer to see = American Range"...

No it does not. However, the speed is not an issue. I do have another question. The formula you provided includes the "=". I would like to only show the string to the left of the "=". Thanks again! P.Park

Thank you. The formula works perfect. The database is Providex. It's a proprietary database for MAS200 Accounting Software from Sage Software. The data is entered into the software and appears in Crystal version 8.5 as a string. Thanks again for your help. P.Park

Crystal 8.5 My customer wants to enter text such as below. I need to ignore all text after the = sign. The equal sign is never in the same place. "Here is an example = everything after the equal sign is to be ignored." Thanks so much, P.Park

Thanks! Works perfect.

I need to have my report have page numbers backward. In other words, in decending order. Any ideas? Thanks All p.park Crystal 8.5 Providex (MAS200/90) Accounting database

Crystal 8.5 with MAS200 Accounting Software. The custom Crystal report runs in MAS200 Accounting Software. I want to link a MS Word document to the end of the report. (I can't just paste the text into the footer of the report, because I get an error that the page it too large. This is a Sales...

Cisco 2600 version 12.0 Is there a step by step procedure on how to set up a VPN user. Documentation? thanks so much in advance, p.park

The database is ProvideX - It's a proprietary database. Not fast. P.Park

No, we gave up and are using Windows 2000 for our workstations. It just seems to me there must be an answer out there. The performance difference is very dramatic. P.Park

The PDC is NT4 and the various data servers are Advanced Server 2000. Depending on which server I set the permissions, when I view a folder's permission's, it will display the SID instead of the actual user or group name. Why is this and does it affect anything? For example, if I set the...

I have a public task folder. I want to create a recurring task that sends recurring reminder to a group (distribution) email. I can't figure out how to do this. Thanks, P.Park

I need a handheld for an extremely simple task. It can be monochrome, and needs maybe 20 lines of viewing on a screen. It needs a small keyboard, but enough for a tech to enter programming code. It needs the ability to load and/or run HyperTerminal software. It needs the ability to use a...
