Details


LeftTrim can be used to remove leading blanks, or other characters, from a string.
The OfText parameter can contain more than one character.

Example


In this example, if #String contained " ABCDE", the result would be "ABCDE"
#Com_owner.Caption := #String.LeftTrim
In this example, if #String contained AAA the result would be "A". After the first AA has been removed from the string, only a single A remains that does not match the OfText parameter value.
#Com_owner.Caption := #String.LeftTrim( AA )
