You have to use "StartsWith", for example:

B4X:

Dim str As String

If str.StartsWith("1") Then ...

There's no "TrimLeft" but you can do something like this:

B4X:

Dim str As String

str = "1 Hello there"

If str.StartsWith("1") Then

   str = str.SubString(1)
         
End If

Msgbox(str, "")

Thanks you two, Margret I noticed the following..

s.At()
s.Left()
s.Len()
s.Ltrim()
s.Mid()
s.Right()
s.Rtrim()
s.Stuff()
s.Trim()
s.Val()

Am I missing a library or these built in commands I have not found docs on?

Those functions are a code module written by Margret and some other members, they are no part of B4A.

Hello, it is a code module. No libraries are needed. You can download it from the link I gave. You can unzip it and then copy and paste the code in a module named s.

Thanks NJDude. I was typing and got a phone call. When I posted I saw you had already posted the answer.


Thanks

Encrypt and Decrypt

Hi,
Any idea how to use the Encrypt and Decrypt function in StringFunctions library?

How can I specify the salt/key for it?

Regards,
Thomas
