dataport - syntax for using * and /

Dreamweaver33_1998

IF MyNo = '*' THEN

CurrDataport.SKIP

I want the dataport to skip any records where MyNo is * . This doesn’t seem to be working. Is there a special syntax for using the * ?

IF MyNo = '/*' THEN BEGIN

I want the dataport to perform certain instructions if MyNo begins with / . This doesn’t seem to be working either.

Help, please.

IF copystr(MyNo,1,1) = '/' THEN BEGIN

END;

First one:

IF MyNo <> '' THEN  //is something filled
  CurrDataport.SKIP
