Dan,
Just adding a checkbox to ignore comments is difficult, because of the different type of comments, such as:
CL comments
RPG fix format comments
RPG free format comments
Panel group comments
etc.
But it should be possible to enable regular expressions. For now that is nothing more than a guess and I have to check it. The problem is that I do not have enough time for that this week.
Meanwhile you can develop some nice expressions, that we can add to the iSphere help text. ;-)
Thomas.

Betreff: [WDSCI-L] Bulk source search ignoring commented-out code (iSphere special?)
I posted a similar message in Midrange-L, but then remembered iSphere's Source File Search, and wondered if the function I'm looking for (below) could be integrated into this.
I need to do a bulk search of source (ala FNDSTRPDM) but with the ability to ignore all comments.
I'm guessing this is custom-written app, but it seems to be that this would be a valuable tool for many programmers, especially for those in shops where code is never deleted outright, but is commented-out.
Specifically, I am looking for all usages of '*MDY' (and other formats utilizing 2-digit years).
Has someone already invented this wheel?
- Dan
