Does VBScript have a substring() function?

Question

Is there a substring() function in VBScript similar to Java's string.substring()?

Answer 1

Yes, Mid.

Dim sub_str
sub_str = Mid(source_str, 10, 5)

The first parameter is the source string, the second is the start index, and the third is the length.

Answer 2

As Tmdean correctly pointed out you can use the Mid() function. The MSDN Library also has a great reference section on VBScript which you can find here:
