Not sure if I understand you correct, but if you have start and end positions and you want to display the bit between, can you not use #MID()# ?? Or have I completely simplified that??
-----Original Message----- From: Paddy McKay [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 26 June 2003 13:16 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ cf-dev ] String Hi I'm having a bit of brain fade at the moment, and I hope someone can answer this fairly straighforward question. I'm reading the contents of an HTML file into a variable, and I want to display just the contents of a table within that file, i.e. strip out all the text before and after this table, including opening and closing HTML and body tags. I can get the start and end positions of the string I want to display, but I can't think what function I need to use to display it. I know I could do a loop over the string and do several hundred listdeleteat to get rid of all the elements before and after the bit I want, but this seems very inefficient. Does anyone have any bright ideas? All help appreciated. paddy ----------------- Paddy McKay Scottish Property Network [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel: 0141 561 7300 Fax: 0141 561 7319 DISCLAIMER: This e-mail is confidential and may also be legally privileged.
