How to reference a portion of a field in Scripting

[clausl_christensen]

Hello,

I have a task where I need to print a field in bold, if the first letter of the field has a certain value.

I've tried to obtain this by using this scripting code, but it does not work:

data.#pageSet[0].FirstPage.HeaderSection.Information.RightColumn.CustNo.TEXT038::initialize - (FormCalc, client)

var FieldPos1 = Substr($.rawValue,1)

if ( FieldPos1 eq "C" ) then

$.font.weight = "bold"

endif

I also tried this simpler way which does not work either, does anybody have an idea how this can be done?

if ( $.rawValue(1) eq "C" ) then

$.font.weight = "bold"

endif

Kind regards,

Claus Christensen

Hello Claus,

Syntax you have used above is wrong. Please use this syntax.

var FieldPos1 = Substr($.rawValue,1, 1);

if ( FieldPos1 eq "C" ) then

$.font.weight = "bold";

endif

Thanks,

Rakesh
