Command | Result |
---|---|
[First({N},{FieldName})] | Takes {N} letters from the beginning of {FieldName} |
[Last({N},{FieldName})] | Takes {N} letters from the end of {FieldName} |
[{FieldName}] | Takes the entire value of {FieldName} |
{anyvalue] | Literal Values — Any text not surrounded by [ ] is passed along without being processed. |
[PadLeft({N},{C})] | Pads the end result to ensure it is {N} characters long. Fills any empty space with {C} to the left side. (note: it applies to the current length of the string, so best to use at the end in normal situations) |
[FirstOfWords({N},{FieldName},{NWords})] | Takes {N} letters from each word found in {FieldName} but only process up to {NWords}. (if only 1 word is found, it falls back to doing a First with {N}x{NWords}. (the goal being to have a meaningful length)) |
