Select a character of a string

Hi

Now I got a simple question: How do I select a character of a string.
e.g. the third character of the string "Visual Basic" would be "s"
What is the way to do this?

Regards
Wouter

to select the third char try this

dim hold as string

hold = mid("visual basic",3,1)

hold now contains the char S

the 3,1 indicates to start at the third position and return everything in the length
in this case 1. if the length required was 2 it would return su

hope this helps > locutus
