Hi,
 
I have a field I want to sort the data ffrom
but I want to setup a formula to strip off the data until the colon in the field??
 
for example
 
field = community: Park, I want "community"
 
field = Medical: Doctor, I want "Medical"
 
Thanks' In advance

ok So I figured out how to get the first part
 Split({Relationship.AbbrName}, ':')[1]
 
Now I want to setup another formula to get what is to the right of the ":" instead of the left?
 
Thanks

Believe it or not;
 
Split({Relationship.AbbrName}, ':')[2]
 
will return the 2nd part! ;-)
