Vlad InstrRev function - this counts the first occurrence of a string but 'backwards', i.e. starting at the end... HTH, Cheers Tom -----Original Message----- From: ACTEBS [mailto:actebs at actebs.com.au] Sent: 26 October 2004 15:08 To: Access Group (E-mail) Subject: [AccessD] Last occurrence within a string Guys, I am stuffing around with this and am sure I have done this before but for the life of me can't get it. I need to find the last occurrence of "\" within a file path string. For example if the path was C:\MyDocs\Docs\Temps\Hello.doc I want to be able to return the Hello.doc portion and to do that obviously I need to know what position the last backslash is. Any ideas?
