Hi,
I would like to retrieve the value from a string after a particular character. For example
abc=123
I want to return the 123 (anything after the =)
If I use substring I then need to use the string length which gets messy, is there any other way?
Thanks

In VC 8.2.7 you can:
{STRING(GetColumn|1|2|=|abc=123)}
or
{REGEX(Match|abc=123|(?<==).+)}
The first will stop at any later "=". The second will not.

Interesting alternatives Jon. My instinct would be to use:
{REGEX(Replace|abc=123|abc=(.*)|$1)}
To tighten up to match one or more decimals:
{REGEX(Replace|abc=123|abc=(\d+)|$1)}
