Hi,

I don't understand what you are trying to do, but calling the addInstance() returns the instance of the subform (or row) you have just added.  So if I had a repeating subform called Subform1 which contained a text field called TextField1 then I could set the value of that field with.

var newInstance = _Subform1.addInstance();

newInstance.TextField1.rawValue = "some text";

Given a text field you can test if it contains a string with

 

if (/keyword/.test(Subform1.TextField1.rawValue))

{

    console.println("match");

}

else

{

    console.println("no match");

}

This will print "match" on the console if TextField1 contains the string "keyword" anywhere within it.

What I don't understand is how you want to use these two pieces of code.
