Where do I look for my starter pack for developing functions in external modules? I want to start developing my non-indexed word filter but I need a template. What I want to do is pass in a string or memo field and return a boolean.

ps I especially like this entry in the 1.02 pdf

This error is raised whenever ElevateDB encounters an issue with loading an external module. Please see the
External Modules topic for more information.

Believe me I've tried Smiley

pps if anyone has already written any user defined functions in an external module for inclusion in sql I'd love a copy.

Got that wrong. I need t pass in the wordlist, the column and a boolean (case sensitivity) and return a boolean.

The 1.03 release will fix the templates so that you can use them in the IDE.

I'm well aware of the issues with the documentation.  Those issues are fixed
now:

http://www.elevatesoft.com/edb1sql_external_modules.htm

BTW, the external modules, etc. are all considered "advanced" customization,
so they won't be heavily documented past what is documented in the IDE
templates.  It should suffice for most cases, but just to give you fair
warning....
