hello

In my search I use an eval command like below in order to identify character string in web url

| eval Kheo=case(
    like(url,"%SLG%"),"G",
    like(url,"%SLK%"),"G",
    like(url,"%SLY%"),"I",
    like(url,"%SK%"),"T",
    like(url,"%SL%"),"E"
    ) 
| search Kheo=*

The problem I have is that my eval identify every url which conatains for example "SLG" letters in lowercase or uppercse

My need is to strictly identify URL which contains "SLG" letters in uppercase

I tried with match but it changes nothing

| eval Kheo=case(
    match(url,"SLG"),"G",

 could you help please?

@jip31 - Try this instead:

| eval Kheo=case(
    match(url,"SLG"),"G",
    match(url,"SLK"),"G",
    match(url,"SLY"),"I",
    match(url,"SK"),"T",
    match(url,"SL"),"E"
    )

I dont say its not working but it doesnt work exactly like i need

For exemple, if i am looking for 

eval Kheo=case(
    like(url,"%SLG%"),"G",

I dont want to display URL with lowercase like "slg" but just with uppercase like "SLG"
