Return the rightmost n characters of a
|
|
Syntax |
s$ = RIGHT$(string_expression, n&) |
|
Remarks |
If n& is positive, RIGHT$ returns the indicated number of characters from the string, starting from the right and working left. If n& greater than the length of string_expression, all of string_expression is returned. If n& is 0, RIGHT$ returns an empty string. If n& is negative, it is interpreted as (LEN(string_expression) - ABS(n&)). For example, RIGHT$("1234567890", -2) returns "34567890". |
