Report filename construction using substrings

[[Ke...]]

In constructing a name definition in PCM syntax, how is the getRecordHead("partnbinc") character string modified to use only a substring of characters, or in my case the 19-24th characters of a longer character string? This question applies to the Name definitions for output files. Thanks for any assistance.

Here is one simple way. But this assumes you always like to have the characters 19-24.

subStr(getRecordHead("partnbinc"),19,24)

Eric,
Thanks for the assist. Worked in this instance where I am required to extract a part number from a scanned bar code string. Appreciate the help!
