What syntax can I use to vary the location Mid and Left start at based on a text string? Fox example, if I have a field called "Fieldname" , with data "My Text is in this field", and I want to remove "My Text " and exverything left of it, I can use
Left(Fieldname, 9)
I want something more like this:
Left(Fieldname, [9 relative to My Text])
Sometimes there will be text left of "My Text", sometimes not.

Hi, rando.
Didn't understand what part you want to remove, left or right. :)
Anyway
Split(Fieldname ,"Your Text")(0) will return substring left to "Your Text"
Split(Fieldname ,"Your Text")(1) will return substring right to "Your Text"
Excellent. That will help. Thanks.

G'day,
I am using CSS to construct bar charts from nested DIVs. In general this
works fine. However, in certain circumstances I need to display multiple
charts inline. To get consistent results on IE and Moz I wrap each chart in
a <TABLE style="display: inline">. Unfortunately, IE ignores the top-margin
and left-margin properties of a few of the charts, which end up in the top
left corner of the page. The charts that get this treatment...

Hi, I'm trying to do something that has always been easy with tables -
namely use a three column layout, and above the main layout, show three

in the middle. The one in the middle needs to be centered, as various
browsers display slightly differently.
However, using the CSS and code below, either the first image is not
shown (IE) or the right image is shown below...

For increased accessibility, I've replaced "display:none" with the
Off-Left method of hiding my CSS drop-down menus because the Jaws
screen reader doesn't see any of the menus hidden with "display:none".
The Off-Left method (placing elements way over to the left beyond the
browser window) seems to work well in everything except IE 6 for the
PC, where it displays the drop-downs about an inch to the right of
where they should be. (View...

Hi
I am trying to write a code snippet that would display a '?' sign on the top
left of a control.
I do not want to hard code the positioning of the DIV which will contain
that '?'.
Is it possible to somehow know the top, left position of the content
rendered by a User Control in a asp page.
For eg, assume the figure below as a web page and A and B as user controls

I'm back again,
Intro:
I've got a floating div (outerDIV) with fixed width that contains an image (IMG) and a div that contains a short text (innerDIV)
Problem:
In FF, the innerDIV is displaying under the IMG because outerDIV is not wide enough to contain both of them (in some instances). In the instances where the outerDIV is wide, I don't have this problem.
IE wraps the text but still keeps it to the right of the IMG. FF doesn't...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
