B.3.6 String Delete
This command can be selected from the
String commands
list.
When used in a Flow Chart, the String Delete command deletes a specified
number of characters from a given string and writes the result to separate String
tag. This is different from the String Left, String Right, and String Mid commands
above; the output is the remainder of the given string rather than the characters
that were deleted from it.
Parameters for this command include:
Destination String – The String tag to which the result of the command
will be written.
To configure the Destination String parameter, click the
button to
open a standard
Select String Tag
dialog.
