Hi,
I have a list with a few items and I want to find all items with "iso"
My attempts do not work.

Any clues?

set theListe to {"Iso", "not", "Iso", "not", "Iso"}
get items in theListe where it contains "iso"

set theListe to {"Iso", "not", "Isocele", "not", "Isotope"}
set available to {}
repeat with i from 1 to count of theListe
if item i of theListe contains "Iso" then copy i to end of available
end repeat
available

Will return {1,3,5}. You need either

set theListe to {"Iso", "not", "Isocele", "not", "Isotope"}

set available to {}

repeat with anItem in theListe

if anItem contains "Iso" then copy anItem as string to end of available

end repeat

set theListe to {"Iso", "not", "Isocele", "not", "Isotope"}

set available to {}

repeat with i from 1 to count of theListe

if item i of theListe contains "Iso" then copy item i of theListe to end of available

end repeat

Steve
