No it's still not clear. Your code seems to want to do something with the parameter name. Your example does not. I believe your required algorithm is "for each parameter name found in InString substitute the parameter reference (that is, the name surrounded by sharp signs) with the parameter va...

You could use the Index() function to check for each individual word. This would require hard coding "search file II" into your design.

Is this a QualityStage job? That is, does it use any of the Data Quality stage types? If so, have you provisioned all the files for the rule set that you are using?
