Hi @punnipah

Try with this expression

if(System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(Currentitem.Subject.Tostring,"\W","").Contains("SubjectLCMS"),"S")

maybe the Code retrieval can better be setup with a regex:

strPattern = "(?<=Subject:?LCM-)\w+\b"
strCode = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Match(strTextVar, strPattern).Value

with an evaluation of the retrurned string also the default case code can be handled

Hi,

In this case, it might be better to use Strings.Right and String.IndexOf or regex instead of String.Contains, as the following.

Strings.Right(CurrentItem.Subject,CurrentItem.Subjet.Length-CurrentItem.Subject.IndexOf("-")-1)

OR

System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Match(CurrentItem.Subject,"(?<=-).*").Value

These return characters after “-”
