If you know for sure that the price part will contain only digits and a dollar sign, you could use CHRTRAN() to eliminate those characters:

DescOnly = CHRTRAN(MemoField,'0123456789$','')

However, if you might have commas and periods, it gets harder because those can appear in the descriptions, too. In that case, loop through the possible start characters for the price, using AT() to find out where that part starts. Then grab the front of the string.

One other idea. If you can be sure the price part has no embedded spaces, use RAT() to find the rightmost space and keep everything in front of that.
