Newbie easy question

I have the following:

strAcctNumber = strAcctNumberWithBank.Substring(2, 9)

What I really want is to grad the account number from position 3 on no matter what the lenght. As you can see now, I am restricted to 9 characters long, and I want it to be where is can be less than or greater than 9, but it must start @ position 3. What the correct syntaxt or best route to accomplish this.

That would be

Code:

---

strAcctNumber = strAcctNumberWithBank.Substring(2, strAcctNumberWithBank.Length - 2)

---

strAcctNumberWithBank.Length - 2 supplies you with the index of the last char of the string.

That would just be:

Code:

---

strAcctNumber = strAcctNumberWithBank.Substring(2)

---

You only need the second parameter if you want to stop before the end of the string.

Appreciate the quick feedback, why is it when I have the following:

strAcctNumberWithBank = Trim(result(0))
strAcctNumber = strAcctNumberWithBank.Substring(2)

I debug and I am not getting an stracctnumber

strAcctNumber Nothing String
strAcctNumberWithBank "98110900016" String

I am expecting strAcctNumber to show '110900016' String

Nevermind, I think it might be because I was only debugging that one line. Sorry, new to all this.
