RightA DataWindow expression function

Description

Obtains a specified number of characters from the end of a
string.

Syntax

<span>Right</span> ( <span>string</span>, <span>n</span> )

1	<span>Right</span> ( <span>string</span>, <span>n</span> )

Argument	Description
string	The string from which you want characters returned
n	A long whose value is the number of characters you want returned from the right end of string

Return Values

String. Returns the rightmost n characters
in string if it succeeds and the empty string
(“”) if an error occurs.

If n is greater than or equal to the
length of the string, RightA returns the entire string.

equal to n.

in DBCS environments in PowerBuilder 9. In SBCS environments, Right and RightA return
the same results.
