peter.cook	Posted - 07/01/2004 : 10:20:41 AM Hi, I've found this code : %[%Z,%[%Z]] returns the string minus the last character. This is actually what I want. Is this expected behaviour with the script as shown ie reliable? Cheers, Pete

Mike Buess	Posted - 07/01/2004 : 11:41:23 AM Hi Pete, %[%Z,n] returns the substring preceding the nth character. n=%[%Z] is the number of characters in %Z. So %[%Z,%[%Z]] should return the string minus the last character. (Labtalk indices start with 1.) Mike Buess Origin WebRing Member
