public:
static System::String ^ Right(System::String ^ str, int Length);
public static string Right (string? str, int Length);
public static string Right (string str, int Length);
static member Right : string * int -> string
Public Function Right (str As String, Length As Integer) As String
- str
- String
Required. String
expression from which the rightmost characters are returned.
- Length
- Int32
Required. Integer
. Numeric expression indicating how many characters to return. If 0, a zero-length string ("") is returned. If greater than or equal to the number of characters in str
, the entire string is returned.
A string containing a specified number of characters from the right side of a string.
Length
< 0.
This example demonstrates the use of the Right
function to return a substring of a given String
. In a class that has a Right
property, it may be necessary to fully qualify the Right
function.
Dim testString As String = "Hello World!"
' Returns "World!".
Dim subString As String = Right(testString, 6)
To determine the number of characters in str
, use the Len
function. If used in a Windows Form, or any other class that has a Right
property, you must fully qualify the function with Microsoft.VisualBasic.Strings.Right
.
Note
The RightB
function in earlier versions of Visual Basic returns a string in bytes, rather than characters. It is used primarily for converting strings in double-byte character set (DBCS) applications. All current Visual Basic strings are in Unicode, and RightB
is no longer supported.
