	Yes, you use Instr() and Mid(). Something like this: Mid({table.email}, Instr({table.email},"@")+1) I have all the string functions fully documented in Chapter 6 of my Encyclopedia book. You can find out more about my books at Amazon.com or reading the Crystal Reports eBooks online. Edited by BrianBischof - 24 Apr 2008 at 8:19am
