Use the substring expression - it puts a substring out of a string of

characters.


Substring ( string, index, count )


in it:

string is equal to a variable name

index is the character you want to use (over from the left, I believe)

count is the number of characters you want to extract


for your example


Set Variable: "little_number" = Substring (big_number, 3, 2 )


so you will output little_number now instead of big_number
