I have a specific email that I am trying to EXTRACT information from. Seems like it should be pretty straightforward. But, when I try to grab data with the Extraction Wizard, it continually returns me #EANF#. Even with the most simple of extractions.
Code: Select all
TAG POS=1 TYPE=FONT ATTR=TXT:$* EXTRACT=TXT
This should return the value ($10.00) that is in the email. But I get nothing. Is there something I need to do to make the wizard work properly with an email on gmail? I noticed that I tried to view source on the page and very little comes up.
Thanks,
Dave

Okay... whatever. Apparently I just had to walk away from it for a bit. The following code selected my text. Just had to find the right position value.
Code: Select all
TAG POS=12 TYPE=FONT ATTR=TXT:* EXTRACT=TXT
Thanks,
Dave

Hi Dave,
I have the exact same question and wondered if you used a bit of software to do this?
Cheers,
Warren
