@Compif syntax difference in other locales
Forums
Hi,
I am using @compif function in equation for appending field through idea script. This works fine in English/United states locale. When I changed locale to French, the equation is not working.
Each condition in @compif is separated by comma (,). But in French locale, it is showing that semi colon (;) has to be used for each condition.
So my code is not working in French/German locales.

Dialog Box instead of array
Forums
Hi Brian,
I am evolving some of my scripts for better usage and I come up with something I am not sure I can do, therefore I am checking with you. I have this part of code, and instead of an array, I would like to insert a dialog box with check boxes as my audit period will expand from location to location and therefore the last 6 months will be always different. Do you know if it is possible? If so, would you mind providing me some guidance?
Thanks,
Giorgia

Delete an original data field
Forums
Hi Brian,
I tried to generate some code by means of the makro recorder in IDEA which allows to delete an original data field. But I did not work. I am searching for a command which turns off the default setting which blocks the delete of original data fields and then turns it on again.
Thank you very much in advance for your help.
Best
Bobby

Large and Unusual extraction
Forums
Hi Brian,
I am trying to develop a script to run a 'Large & Unusual' style extraction over a range of different databases. This requires two seperate functions being:
- direct extraction based on a user defined $value (similar to your IDEA Scripting Tutorial video); and
- direct extraction based on key words in a character field (such as a description field).
My issue is that our standard databases include:

Script - front end
Forums
Hi Brian,
I would like to build a script front end, as I have created a major script with lots of minor script each referring to a specific audit testing, where before runnig everything the user is requested to select some or all analysis to perform and also in which order. Have you ever created something like this? In case, would you like to share with me some guidance or advice? I have never created one.
Thanks, Giorgia
