Hi,

Replying to my own mail. There is a mistake, The syntax is incorrect:

From: "Girish Gopinath" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
exten => 12345, 1, SetVar,MYDIGITS=${EXTEN:2,3} ; MYDIGITS = 2345.
Correct: exten => 1234, 1, SetVar,MYDIGITS=${EXTEN:2:3} ; MYDIGITS = 234.

My apologies...

Girish

Hello,

From: "Hermann Wecke" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Stripping numbers at the end of a dial pattern => 
extensions.conf
Date: 8 May 2004 22:03:57 +

Is it possible to strip some numbers from the *end* of a number?

I know that ${EXTEN:1} will remove 1 position from the beggining... but
how to remove N numbers from the end?
Use ${variable:pos:n}. This will give you 'n'  digits from the position 
'pos'.
exten => 12345, 1, SetVar,MYDIGITS=${EXTEN:2,3} ; MYDIGITS = 2345.
Also, there is Substring application available with Asterisk, but it is 
deprecated i think...

HTH, Girish
