    So I'm recording Cell IDs into a variable, with a date and a new line, for some location stuff. It seems that I can't get any pattern matching working.

    $Homecells:
    CDMA:1234/10-7-19
    CDMA:5678/10-7-19
    CDMA:135/10-7-19
    CDMA:246/10-7-19

    The only time my IF %CELLID ~ %Homecells works is if CELLID matches the top entry. What am I missing?

    Hi! this seems to work for me :)
    Code (Text):
        Test (2)
            A1: Variable Set [ Name:%cells To:CDMA:1234/10-7-19
        CDMA:5678/10-7-19
        CDMA:135/10-7-19
        CDMA:246/10-7-19 Recurse Variables:Off Do Maths:Off Append:Off Max Rounding Digits:3 ]
            A2: Variable Set [ Name:%test To:CDMA:5678/10-7-19 Recurse Variables:Off Do Maths:Off Append:Off Max Rounding Digits:3 ]
            A3: If [ %cells ~R (.|\n)*%test ?(.|\n)* ]
            A4: Flash [ Text:Matches! Long:Off ]
            A5: End If
       
    Hope this helps!

    Good Lord. Thank you! And thanks for the reminder of why I hate regex. I've no idea what that says. LOL
