Strip Value To Left Of Character

Legacy Poster

I have a database field with some values of x/.  As an example 3/3.99.  I am looking for a VB script to strip out the 3/ leaving me 3.99.

i.e. 2/5.99 I want 5.99.  I was hoping to somehow remove everything to the left of the / including the /.

Any ideas?

  For BarTender 10.0 or later, that's easy..
  on the data source's Transforms tab > search and replace, add 2 actions.

  1. Search and Delete Everything Before: "/"

  2. Search and Delete: "/"

   

  For older versions, you need OnProcessData VB script in More options of the data source.

  'Find "/" and delete the "/" and text before'
  i = Instr(Value,"/")
  if i >= 1 Then
    Value  = Mid(Value, i+1)
  End If

  You could even simplify it down further:
   

  value = mid(value,instr(value,"/") + 1)

  Thanks for the script.  I couldn't use the transforms tab because I don't want it to do that always, it is based on some other field values.

  The script Mike gave me worked for my use!

   

  Thanks again
