Hello,
I'm using CR9 against an Outlook global access list. In trying to find only certain people, I'm trying to use the record select formula "{Global_Address_List.Title} like '*chief*'". It gives no errors, but no output either. Without the record select, it pulls everyone just fine.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks
Bob


 
Try a different wildcard character. Some environments use the % as the wildcard.
 
Thanks Morriskc,
I'll give that a try

What happens if you get scared half to death twice?
 
Try this:

"chief" in {Global_Address_List.Title}

Works for me every time...
