Rather than write the code for you, I'll show you how to get more information about this.

Click on your help menu, and select "C/SIDE Reference Guide". This opens the C/SIDE Reference Guide, which has all the syntax help that you need. Go to the Search tab, type in STRPOS and click "List Topics". Now you will see the command in the lower left hand box. Put your cursor on the topic and click on "Display". Now you will see the help topic for this command in the right hand side of the C/SIDE Reference Guide. It even comes with a code sample. Do the same with STRLEN, and any other command you want to know more about.

In the C/AL editor, press F5. On the left hand side scroll down to where it says SYSTEM. In the middle, select String, and this will display all available commands for Text variables. Type in any of these commands into the C/SIDE Reference Guide to learn about them. There are tons of code samples in there that should help you figure this kind of stuff out.

In the beginning you don't know what all those commands are for. Don't worry neither did any of us when we first started. That's why you should read about all of them, and learn what they stand for. Good luck

I can recommend this handy reference guide: Microsoft Dynamics NAV 5.0 Quick Reference. But maybe I'm a bit biased here ;-)

*No. is item number

shifra := "No.";
teksti := 'pozicioni:';
substring := '2700';
pos := STRPOS(shifra, substring);
MESSAGE(teksti, pos);

and i mesagebox show me just teksti variable "position:"

wher is my mistatake

Malajlo

you can try with

FirstPart := string[1] + String[2] ;


Your mistake is in teksti := 'pozicioni:';
IT should be teksti := 'pozicioni: %1';
and
MESSAGE(STRSUBSTNO(teksti, pos));
