I feel so stupid. That works great! In fact I think I can write an AT
() and RAT() function that mimicks Foxpro's using that. Of course I
must now correct you to some degree, because properly I should first
save the old delimiter, and afterwards restore it. That would be 4
lines. Still, your solution is elegant and truely "binary". :-)

Is there a way to scan a text string from end to beginning for
something
without using a loop? I am trying to "be binary" (for those of you
conference goers) and I am trying to extract just a file's name
from the
full path. It seems to be something of a difficult thing to do in
a one
liner.
