your explanation above doesn't make sense .. you start by saying that your
script works just fine except when you're searching for a part number with a
letter in it
then your only two examples both have letters in them
and you don't explain the relationship between the two part numbers .. do
they appear on lines one after each other in your data file ? .. what's the
story ?
I can only guess that - for some reason - you have multiple part numbers on
each line and your split isn't working the way you're expecting because
there's nothing immediately obvious in your script that would cause the
problem you're describing if the part numbers were on different lines
