Long-standing BrainStorm user, Jack Rickards<\/a> was struggling with trying to list the entries in BrainStorm that contained the same text. He could "find" and "find again" but that wasn’t enough.<\/p>\n

Here’s the email exchange that led to a solution that worked for him.<\/p>\n

From Jack:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nThis may be a WIBNI request or something I have stupidly overlooked that is already possible in the all-encompassing BrainStorm.<\/p>\n

I realize that one can do a "find" and continue doing "find agains" on a text string and, with a split screen, copy the result of these multiple finds into a new list. Is there a way to ask BrainStorm to generate a list of all<\/strong> occurrences of a text string?<\/p>\n

I have, in a BrainStorm model, projects all over the place under various major headings. I have included in these project titles, a priority code and a now\/later code, for example [A1\/now]. Obviously I am looking for a quick and dirty way to generate all my "A1\/now"s in a separate list.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From me:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nOn the "all strings" – I usually "Write" "Only entries containing this text" to the clipboard then paste. The pasted lines form namesakes with the originals (of course). You may want to write just one level.<\/p>\n

Or not.<\/p>\n

Let us know if this helps.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From Jack:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nThanks David. That works great. What an incredible and powerful feature for setting & retrieving tagged info’ throughout a BrainStorm model. David I suspect this is just one of many great features that are fully implemented yet not being pitched!\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Phew! Glad that solved your problem, Jack.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
