hartmut Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 I have a field which has 23 numbers and I would like to remove the first 10 from the field. for example the number is "27457839462738493823432" I would like to have the following remain in my field "2745783946273" I understand how to find it with right function but not how to remove the 10 digits from the right.

Lee Smith Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 (edited) If you are just wanting like the first 13 characters in your field, use the Left (YourField; 13) Edited July 19, 2007 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aholtzapfel Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 in a script it would be SetField (yourfield; Left(yourfield;length(yourfield)-10)) or you could do a replace with calculated result Left(yourfield;length(yourfield)-10) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
