Alexandre,

If I'm not mistaken, doing this in my command window returns me the following;

nFirstComma = 9
nSecondComma = 23

FirstName works fine, however;
This.cUserLevel = Substr(lcLongString, nFirstComma + 1, nSecondComma - 1)
will return 'ADMINISTRATOR,****'

This.cUserLevel = Substr(lcLongString, nSecondComma + 1)

will return '****' because we are starting at the second comma and returning the remainder of the string.
But if I used the following it should give me what I want;

This.cUserLevel = LEFT(cUserLevel, AT(',', cUserLevel) - 1)

The code I have originally works fine, but I want to avoid, as much as possible, the amount of times the program has to evaluate and redefine this value.

Thanks,
Jon
