Hi,
is it possible to compare one field with itself based on two different states of selections. I have one bookmark that gives me the part list: A,B,C,D,E,F. Second bookmark gives me: B,C,D,G. Can I compare somehow theese two bookmarks to get final list: A,E,F (only values that are in bookmark one but not in bookmark two)? I need only list from this field.
I feel that macro can solve this problem but I do not have that much knowledge. I appreciate any help.
Hi again,
yes it is possible. It took me some time to fix all variables and with help topics I was able to make this code. Thats why I want to share it. I do not know if it is optimal solution, but it works and it is fast enough.
sub ExtractParts
'Field to filter
set araj=ActiveDocument.Fields("G_VCC")
'Activate first bookmark
ActiveDocument.RecallDocBookmark "Set1"
'Take possible values from field G_VCC into array
SET PrvaLista = araj.GetPossibleValues
'Activate second bookmark
ActiveDocument.RecallDocBookmark "Set2"
'ake possible values from field G_VCC into array
SET DrugaLista = araj.GetPossibleValues
'Count length of both arrays
brojac1 = PrvaLista.Count
brojac2 = DrugaLista.Count
'loop throught both arrays. Goal is to check every line from first array with every line from second and to extract those that are same.
for i=0 to brojac1 - 1
'Set variable with "i" line from array1
set VCC1 = PrvaLista(i)
'Loop through second array
for j = 0 to brojac2-1
'Set variable with "j" line from array2
set VCC2 = DrugaLista(j)
'If value from first array is equal to value from second array
if VCC1.Text = VCC2.Text then
'Then result is previous result;NewVariable
Rezultat = Rezultat & PrvaLista(i).text & "; "
end if
next
next
'At the end, result variable "Rezultat" is placed in previously created variable "Probna" in front end. There is textbox on frontend that takes variable "Probna"
ActiveDocument.Variables("Probna").SetContent Rezultat, true
end sub
Question 2: How to format data in textbox. Right now I get a list with Part;Part;Part... Is it possible to get:
Part;
Part;
Part;

But this issue is solved Thank you all, because I used other questions and answers to get this done.
