Data contained in this field is in the format of ABC# SL or ABC# EL.
What I need to do is create a line between Nodes whos attributes match e.g. ABC1 SL and ABC1 EL.
SL stands for Start Line and the EL stands for End Line.
Thanks

I have a Mapinfo Tab file of Points that have an Attribute called 'Code'.

Hi Shane,
I would use the StringSearcher, Sorter and PointConnector with the following parameter settings.
StringSearcher: Split the Code into 2 parts.
Attribute: Code
Regular Expression: ^(.+)(SL|EL)$
Matched Parts Attribute: _parts
_parts{0} contains "ABC# ", _parts{1} contains "SL" or "EL".
Sorter: Sort the points by the Code (front part) and SL -> EL order.
Attribute | Alpha/Num | Order
_parts{0} | Alphabetic | Ascending
_parts{1} | Alphabetic | Descending
Point Connector: Connect points grouped by the Code (front part).
Connection Break Attributes: _parts{0}
Hope this helps. Takashi
