Perhaps I'm having a brain fart, but I'm stumped... I want to isolate "n" number of characters at the beginning of each line in a value list field and put the extracted values into another list field via calculation. The number of values is dynamic based on the user adding items to the list.
An example:
Value List................ Desired result
0001|Chocolate...... 0001
0002|Christmas...... 0002
, etc.
Of course, if I use Left, Middle, etc. I only get the first line of the list.
P.S. - I'm forced to go no higher than FileMaker 17, so the While function is off the table.
