Hi All,

 

I'm familiar with the middle words function but I'm looking to separate individual letters. I have a table with values the first 2 letters of which I do not need. I'm looking to create a field or function that skips the first 2 letters and displays everything after the first 2 letters.

Is this possible or is the middle words the only way?

How about a Sample of the text?

Then you want the Middle function. I think that Comment provided exactly the answer you wanted recently here. But maybe that was somebody else; or over in a different forum.

Anyway:
