Perform Distinct on channel

[OzShimon]

Hi,

Let say i have this channel values : 1111111111111111222222222222333333331213212321144445

i want to preform a distinct operation and get this channel: 12345

how i do that?

can i get the same effect on Text channel? (on,on,on,on,off,off,off,on,on,on  >>>> new channel: on,off)?

Thanks

Hi OzShimon,

You need a script in which the VBS dictionary is used to do that. Attached you find this as example. The script function "CreateUniqueItemsAndIndex" of this example has three parameters:

a) the source channel (which can have the types numeric or text)

b) the index channel in which the position of a unique content is stored. The index channel refers to c)

c) the unique content which is extracted out of a)

Greetings
