String splitting

[hezoe]

Hi. What is the fucntion used to split a string into two at a certain point (i.e at .)?

[Bill Sindel]

The three string commands that come to mind are;

LEFT$(n)

RIGHT$(n)

MID$(l,n)

[Z!re]

INSTR(s$, w$)

Example:

Code: Select all

s$ = "Hello World!"
l$ = LEFT$(s$, INSTR(s$, " ")-1)
r$ = RIGHT$(s$, LEN(s$)-LEN(l$))

print " '"+l$+"' "
print " '"+r$+"' "
