Re: [Networker] mminfo not equal query

Davina,

For problems with spaces in networker fields I created a my_mminfo script
with the possibility to specify a separator between the fields.

Perl can  then split the lines on the separator and all problems with spaces
dissapear. It can also substitute NULL for empty fields
