>>>My brain must be fried today or something. What is the command to obtain the location of the rightmost character(other than a space) in a field. Example, a 25 character field with city and state separated by a space between city and state. If I grab the last two valid characters in the field, I have the state. I can't use the AT function because some cities are two words.

>>I can't resist sharing a solution that you can use with the FOXTOOLS library. After SET LIBRARY TO FOXTOOLS, you can use:
>>* Number of words
>>lnwords = Words(lcstring)
>>* The last one
>>lclast = WordNum(lcstring, lnwords)

You're welcome, Bill. I think you'd probably get a very large number of responses to that contest. One of the things I love about programming is that, often, there's no one right way to do something. So it becomes a statement of both creativity and self.
