Right Function
Returns a specified number of characters from the right side of a string.
Right(string, length)
Arguments
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.
