hmm..... Mario, thanks! This works .... sort of ....
But I don't know the prefix - I have a list of 50+ tiddlers with unique digit patterns as part of the tiddler names. I need to extract the prefix. Is there a substring function in TW that can operate on a variable? Like, =substring(string,5) that returns the first 5 chars? //steve.
