Text search

[Runawaycode]

Yet I seem not to undestand what's wrong with text searches in a VI.

I got a VI, in which there's a string constant, which is a command line in DOS style.

This string is something like "C:\Program Files\MySoftware\ABC_2_5_6.exe -f -g"

If I perform a text search in the VI for "2_5_6", nothing is found.

I tried "*2_5_6", "2_5_6*", "*2_5_6*" as well, but Labview finds nothing.

Am I missing something ?

I have tried to search the same string in my LabVIEW and it works fine.

BTW which LabVIEW version are you using

If you need to search string in specific VI Then press ctrl+F then Select "Text" (Radio Button) and Input the Search text( Image below).

Also check for some options provided in Find window

Thanks Mangesh, 

I use 2010 SP1.

In effects it works fine, I don't use text search any often, but on a particular VI (rather big) it fails.

I don't know....
