nanoCAD forum

Hello,

i have a question to a specific problem with multicad.net

What kind of language is this? C?

i have a string that works: =If(Exist(Object);Object;"")

How do I check strings? When I want to check for example the first character of the object string, how do I do this?

Can I stack if-cases like =If(Exist(Object);If((FirstcharacterofObject not #);Object;"");"")

Best regards

Hello, nearly done but still far away...

If cases are stackable in Nanocad Report Table.

=Iff(Exist(Object);Iff((Object[0]!="#");Object;"");"")

but how to check the first character of the object??

Hi.
You should use Object's property like Object.Value or Object.Text or whatever. Object is object - not array, dictionary or any other enumerable.
To get any letter from a string use SubLeft, SubRight or SubSplit functions.
SubLeft(Object.Text; 1) will return you 1st letter.

About language - it seems to be something like C#, but it is not. Anyway, it is common and intuitive to use.

It works perfect! Thank you very much for your help!
