Hi

in wb i think you would have to specify -5 ( or maybe just -4) and -1

if you use tcl the expresion is:

string range [ FME_GetAttriubte myStrAttribute ] end-4 end

if you want to strip the string for leading and traling spaces first use

string range [string trim [ FME_GetAttriubte myStrAttribute ] ] end-4 end
