i know its mid, but how do i find the letters number?example would be nice

Mid$ with InStr :

VB Code:

Dim iPos As Integer
    
    iPos = InStr(1, Text1.Text, "Find a Birth Month & Year")
    
    MsgBox Mid$(Text1.Text, 1, iPos - 1)

This function removes everything from OriginalString between String1 & String2

VB Code:

Function RemoveX(ByVal OriginalString As String, ByVal String1 As String, String2 As String) As String
    Dim i As Long, j As Long
    i = InStr(OriginalString, String1) + Len(String1)
    RemoveX = Left(OriginalString, i)
    i = InStr(i, OriginalString, String2)
    RemoveX = RemoveX & Mid(OriginalString, i)
End Function
 
Private Sub Command2_Click()
    ''Use it like this
    MsgBox RemoveX("That was a very good example", "was", "good")
End Sub

well.. if u knw wat the exact string is u can also use replace function like...

Replace("That was a very good example","That was","")

it replaces it with a blank string.. equivalent to removing it
