Syntax
Right(string, length)
The Right function syntax has these arguments:
| Part | Description |
| string | String expression from which the rightmost characters are returned. If string contains Null, Null is returned. |
| length | Numeric expression indicating how many characters to return. If 0, a zero-length string is returned. If greater than or equal to the number of characters in string, the entire string is returned. |
Remarks
To determine the number of characters in string, use the Len function.
The following example uses the Right function to return a specified number of characters from the right side of a string:
Dim AnyString, MyStr
AnyString = "Hello World" ' Define string.
MyStr = Right(AnyString, 1) ' Returns "d".
MyStr = Right(AnyString, 6) ' Returns " World".
MyStr = Right(AnyString, 20) ' Returns "Hello World".
Note The RightB function
is used with byte data contained in a string. Instead of specifying the number
of characters to return, length specifies the number of bytes.
