Left() = retro?

Hi all!

Im trying to get rid of the "BRL.Retro" module in my app.

Can someone tell me what the new command for left(), right() and mid() is? I mean a faster function that does the same job?

Grisu

For Left()

Local String1:String = "123456"
Local String2:String = String1[..3]
Print String2

And for Right()

Local String1:String = "123456"
Local String2:String = String1[Len(String1)-3..]
Print String2

mystring:String="Hello World"
Print mystring[..5]
Print mystring[6..]

?
