Moderators Melba23 Posted January 5, 2011 Moderators Share Posted January 5, 2011 Kid, Any particular reason you did not post this in the General Help area where it belongs? While we wait for someone to move it, you might like to look at these suggestions to do what you want: $sString = "Mother:Hello" $aResult = StringSplit($sString, ":") MsgBox(0, "StringSplit", $aResult[2]) $sResult = StringRegExpReplace($sString, ".*?:(.*)", "$1") MsgBox(0, "StringRegExpReplace", $sResult) For $i = 1 To StringLen($sString) If StringMid($sString, $i, 1) = ":" Then $sResult = StringMid($sString, $i + 1) MsgBox(0, "StringMid", $sResult) ExitLoop EndIf Next And there are no doubt a good few more ways to do it as well!

Mat Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 the way I always do that is by using: StringLeft($s, StringInStr($s, ":") - 1) ; Mother StringTrimLeft($s, StringInStr($s, ":")) ; Hello Melba's first way is the easiest to read though.
