Problem  :Problem with the software / Tool

I want to grep the value of Location and Severity and put into CustomField Location and severity. I have installed the scrip ExtractCustomFieldValues-1.0b1 on rt system. I have made a scrip LocationExtract which is taking template with text as suggested by you and working on OnCreate:

Location|Body|Location\s*:\s*(Delhi|Pune)|   (It has spaces after location)


But it is not taking value of Location from body part to Custom Field. I tried different regex and it is not working. Thanks for your guidence.  What else could be the problem........


With Regards,

Kuldeep Singh
