CMOD Indexing - Newbie

[curioste]

I have a normal print document with carriage control at the top of every page.  I am trying to index based on a value string at column 2 on the whole document.  The value I am looking for shows up multiple times before the next carriage control on each page.  I thought using TRIGGER1=2,*,'APPLICATION: ',(TYPE=GROUP), would catch the word 'APPLICATION: ' as the trigger throughout the document.  But it only occurs after carriage control 1.  Is there anything I can do here?  The sample is below.

Hi

Is it possible for you to provide the entire index file and a screen shot of the Data format tab on the Indexer Properties?

Thanks
Pankaj.

[pankaj.puranik]

While I was reading some CMOD documents, I came across this :
Common options for use as Triggers - Carriage control characters, pagination characters, unique headers.

Going by that, I think the Carriage control character should solve the purpose.

Cheers
Pankaj.

Could be a typo in your post but I believe Trigger1 needs to be TRIGGER1=*,2,'APPLICATION: ',(TYPE=GROUP) if that was what you're aiming for(Trigger1 needs * for record number).  If you were shooting for TRIGGER2 I would go with TRIGGER2=*,2,'APPLICATION: ',(TYPE=FLOAT)

[pankaj.puranik]

I agree with Greg. A TYPE=FLOAT trigger should also work in your case.

[Sammy]

Or, why not define your trigger as the carriage control in column 1, such as:
TRIGGER1=*,1,X'F1',(TYPE=GROUP)

Then define field "Application" as a FIELD and INDEX referencing back to the carriage control.

I know it's been so long, but I will try these things soon.  Thanks for all your advice!  I'll make a reply with my results soon.
