Hey,

I was wondering if someone can assist me in removing the first three letters/characters of a value retrieved from a QueryString.

I.e. fldConnected is retrieved with Request.QueryString("qf") and I get the value of fldConnected. Now I want to take the first three characters fld and strip them from the value so it'll now be Connected. I want to do this so that I can use the very same querystring for a second function that only needs the Connected part.

Thanks A bunch.

Larry

Mid(Request.QueryString("qf"),4)
