Len try this in the message box:
put "approved_by_code" into tFind
get matchText(tFind, "^(.*?)[^_]*$", p1)
put len(p1)
that outputs 12. And with a string that contains no "_" it outputs 0

I need to find the last matching character offset of a string
withing another string. The offset function only gives me the
first one. Is there a function I'm missing (like "offset from end
of string") or a one or two liner I can use?
Example:
approved_by_code - I'm looking for the offset to the second "_"
character so the result should be 12 in this example. It is also
possible that there will only be one "_" character in which case,
that is the offset I want.
Thanks in advance!
