Products

• CA Test Data Manager (Data Finder / Grid Tools)

Issue/Introduction

We are just starting to look at PII profiling within GT Datamaker.  There is not an option to highlight and go search for specific PII data based on the selection.  How can the program look for specific data in a set of tables?  In this business case, the need is to look for a comma in a name in a column.  Can this be done, and if so, how?
