Is it possible to use FIND or SEARCH function to look for upper case string in a column with specific length?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous,
Based on test, I found that 'FIND' function support uppercase filter, 'SEARCH' function not support.
UPPER/LOWER(FIND) = FIND("BET",[Text])&"/"&FIND("bet",[Text])
UPPER/LOWER(Search) = SEARCH("BET",[Text])&"/"&SEARCH("bet",[Text])

Hello,
Trying to clean up a constituent database by finding all instances of where someone used all caps in a field similar to the example below. The table has 19k+ rows.
| Prefix | FirstName | LastName | Suffix | GradYear | HomeAddress1 | HomeAddress2 | HomeCity | HomeState | HomeZip |
| Mr. | James | MAIER | 12345 MYSTREET | HOMETOWN | MI | 12345-1234 |
