Hi Scott,

Your question has been answered with working code on the softvelocity.clarion.language newsgroup where you posted.

It might be nice to post the answer here so it can be indexed and found via search engines.

This is what Jon suggested. JONWATERHOUSE@***

This worked great.

score = MATCH(pwstring,'[0-9]',Match:Regular)

score += MATCH(pwstring,'[A-Z]',Match:Regular)

if LEN(clip(pwstring))>=8 then score += 1.

Thanks all

This answers to some different question, not to “search a string longer than 6 characters, at least 1 upper case letter and at least 1 special character”?
