The reply is different each time, depending upon the number being looked up. So, I just want to look at the first part of the string. If FS can't do a regex match without the trailing $, I'm guessing there's a way to just do it in XML. I'll try and see what I can find after the storm passes unless you have a better idea, I need to shut this computer down right now. Thanks, - Phil You can just not use a regex. Do you need to escape the spaces?

Is there a way to match just the beginning of the string in FS? Thanks, - Phil You need a $ after 'lookup' for it to be a regex.

When doing CNAM dips from opencnam.com, often you get a result of "Currently running a lookup for phone 'xxxxxxxxxx'. on incoming calls, typically for wireless or other unknown name callers and I wanted to change that to "Wireless/Unknown" Since caller_id_name is apparently read-only, I am attempting to set effective_caller_id_name. I put the following in public.xml right below the "fix_cidnam_plus" entry, in other words after a CNAM lookup has been performed. <extension name="fix_currently_running" continue="true"> <condition field="caller_id_name" expression="^Currently running a lookup"> <action application="set" data="effective_caller_id_name=Wireless/Unknown"/> </condition> </extension> If I crafted my regex properly, then it should be matching on the first part of the string and setting the variable appropriately. Is 'effective_caller_id_name' the variable I should be setting? Many thanks, Phil Quesinberry Q Systems Engineering, Inc.
