#30759 - 02/11/10 02:50 PM Pdf as Data Source - Condition on Data?
todonnell69 OL Newbie Registered: 10/26/06 Posts: 17 Loc: NJ	Using a pdf as a data source. I'm trying to set a condition on a data selection captured from a pdf. I can right click and choose 'Data Selection' and I'll get something like '=regionline(6.48,1.00,7.30,1.21)'. Can I convert this or somehow trim the regionline selection so I can compare it to some literal for true or false? Something like =(trim(regionline(6.48,1.00,7.30,1.21))='XXX' Can't seem to get the syntax to make this work. Thanks!

Anonymous Unregistered	Todonnell69: You have an extra paranthesis in there. Try this: =trim(regionline(6.48,1.00,7.30,1.21)) = 'XXX' Whenever you have issues like this, always take a look at your "Preview" window, which generally contains a list of error messages encountered. It may be vague or precise, but it's a starting point (and something to post on the forums for better help) Hope this helps, Eric.
