Hi. Welcome to the list. Assuming you really do have a data.table
and not a data.frame and have joined the right mailing list then
the term "interpret text" is very vague (!) but it's possible to
guess ...<br>
DT[ `Created by Analyst` == "certain analyst" ]<br>
maybe. That's a vector scan but see intro vignette for the faster
binary search way. The backquotes are needed if you have spaces in
the column names.<br>
<br>
Please browse and search questions on the data.table tag on stack
overflow :<br>

I want to show all the rows that were created by a certain analyst. I can't
seem to find the function to interpret text. Please Help
