For your first example if you know it's 4 digits and you only want the third digit it would just be this: Mid(theInput, 3, 1) For your second example it would just be this: Right(theInput, 2) Hope that helps, Matt On 4/23/05, Tim Starling <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > I need to validate a code that is entered into a form and need to be able to > strip certain numbers out of the ones submitted.
