Hi,

 

Is there a way to substring a field based on another field value that is not fixed length and display the inverse   i.e

 

Field 1             Field 2         DESIRED RESULT

ADCDEFG      ABCD                 EFG       

DEFGHI           DEF                   GHI

KLMNOPQ        KL                 MNOPQ

 

Thanks any help would be appreciated.

Hi @dshay249 

 

You can use replace function to get the desired result.

 

Formula:

Replace([Field 1],[Field 2],"")
