Okay, I've finally gotten it to work!  Here is the syntax:

SUBSTR($Body$, 0, STRSTR($Body$,  "STOP HERE"))


Thanks for everyone's help!
Carol

Subject: Re: How to remove everything after a certain value in a string?

Okay, I've gotten the position of the "STOP HERE" (which is a variable) 
using the STRSTR function and I've set a field with the number.  So far so 
good!  But I still can't figure out how to use that number, which is in a 
field, in the SUBSTR function.  

Can someone please help me with that part?

Thanks!
Carol
