Hello, thank you for the help thus far. I figureed out how to hard code if there are no IDs designated listed as "None" and simply show the same:
Object o
o= obj
Module m = current
string VerIds = o. "Verification IDs"
if (VerIds == "None") {
obj.attrDXLName = ("None")
} else {
obj.attrDXLName = (probeAttr_(obj, "Verification IDs"))[0:2]
}
I have carriage returns in my data, however, and I need to show multiple strings. For instance i have MEM1234
ELM1234
FLM1234
and I would want to show all three MEM, ELM, and FLM in my attribute. I guess I would need to separate the strings by carraige return (i think it's: "\n")
thanks, John

This will be a little more complex, as I assume that in the case you have
ELM1234
FLM1234
ELM2345
the result shall look like
ELM
FLM
with ELM not being repeated.
a rough draft:
You will have two loops.
Before the first one, create a String Skip list.
In the first loop, split your attribute into separate lines, for each line extracting the first three characters. Put the result into the Skip list, using your result as both value and key, this way you can ensure that only unique values will be available.
In the second loop, combine all values contained in the Skip list into one string (plus a CR at the correct places).
Afterwards, set obj.attrDXLName to this combined string and delete the Skip list.
About splitting the string into separate lines, you could use the example in the DXL help, section "Regular expressions" (while (!null txt1 && line txt1))
