How to find a line in a table with a specific word and get its row number?

[ninny83]

Hello Guys,

I have this table:

category1,url1,etc..
category1,url2,etc..
category1,url3,etc..
category2,url4,etc..

How can I get the row numbers of that specific lines containing the "category1" keyword ? (e.g. the category1 is contained in row n° 0,1,2)

I need to get those numbers to set the value of a specific select option.

Thank you!!

Ciao

The only way i see is to create a loop.

Take line - add to variable, parse it with word processing to find out if it has something you need, then counter +1 and take next line
Until you find it.
