  • Hi,

    I've just been building up a trigger and it relies on seeing if any of the jockeys in the current race are listed in an external file.

    A trigger using Selection's Jockey's Name is in file c:\Jockey list.txt flatly refuses to work.

    A trigger using Selection's Trigger Expression silk_jockey is in file c:\Jockey list.txt works perfectly.

    Why?

    regards

  • Hello!

    Is each name in double quotes inside the file?

  • Hi Oxa,

    Nope, just one name per line, no quotes.
    Extract below:

    Tom Eaves
    Liam Heard
    Trevor Whelan
    Jamie Moore
    Noel Fehily

    regards

  • You need to enclose all strings in double quotes, throughout the program (triggers, search strings, files etc.).
