Using your sample code, I wrote this simple test:
procedure TfrmMain.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
var
Data : string;
begin
Data := '0.0000.1370. 000';
memo.lines.add( Copy (Data, 1, 3));
memo.lines.add( Copy (Data, 6, 8));
memo.lines.add( Copy (Data, 11, 13));
end;
Here's the result I got -
0.0
0.1370.
0. 000
That's pretty much what you're looking for, isn't it?

Subject: [delphi-en] Using the copy function to separate data
ALL,
I have a telnet connection to a server computer that constant broadcast data to
me each second. The data that I receive has spaces and tabs in the middle of
the string. Once I receive the data I remove all spaces and tabs to get a
single stream of data. After I receive the stream I attempt to parse the data
into segments using the copy function.
My problem is this when I look at the stream the data looks fine but when I use
the copy funtion it does not work properly on the data.
Here is an example :
Single stream from a telnet connection
0.0000.1370. 000
Data := ' 0.0000.1370. 000'
Copy (Data, 1, 3) yield value 0.0 which is fine.
Copy (Data, 6, 8) yields value 0.0000.0 which is wrong.
Copy (Data, 11, 13) yields value 0.0000.0000. 0 which is wrong.
I'm not sure why I am not receiving the correct data.
r/Curtis..
