Hi,
I have a situation i have not encountered before and it is causing me some headache as to which way i should solve this problem.
I have two lists..........ListA is a column of String values, ListB is also a column of string values. Normally to compare lists i would use a dictionary however when doing thisI am comparing listB to listA to see if EXACT values from B appear in A.
However, what i have now is ListA is a long string and what i am trying to do is see if ListB strings "appear" as a subset in listA. For example.
Suppose we have the following:
ListA (1)= Dave was a man and he was strong his number is 1445 and he has nothing else.
ListB(1) = 1445
So when doing the comparison i want to count the number of times 1445 appears as a substring in the listA items.
Any thoughts on how to do this?
