Parsing of XML data
With Troi Text Plug-in you can get XML nodes out of XML formatted text and parse the info into separate fields in your database. You can get the contents of the nodes and child nodes and the attribute data of the nodes.
Set creation
The ANDText, XORText and NOTText functions lets you find all lines that are the same in two text fields, are lines that are different in two text fields and all lines that are in one but not in the other text field.
Lines and Word functions
Troi Text Plug-in's Lines and Word functions let you return:
all unique lines of a text field
all unique words of a text field
all lines in a text field sorted alphabetically
the n-th line of a text field. No difficult calculations to get it, just ask for it!
SumText function
The SumText function creates a dynamic field that concatenates all text from a field in a related file.
Every time records get added to the related file the SumText is automatically updated.
It is the text equivalent of the Sum() function.
Please note that FileMaker Pro now has a List() function, which provides much of this functionality.
We have left the SumText function in to keep the plug-in backward compatible.
