Topic: How do I remove the first x characters from string Posted: 01 Nov 2007 at 11:24am
I have a field returning strings were the first 8 characters are always the same and useless, so I want those removed that that the formula returns only the characters that come after.
The Trim function would be perfect, but I can't specify an argument for length, so is there another way?
