Question

Relation

Hi all,



I have a question. I have 2 Creo parameters “Description” and “BOM_Description”
I have written a relation to make “BOM_Description” equal to “Description”
(BOM_DESCRIPTION=DESCRIPTION). This works fine. What I really want is for
“BOM_Description” to just equal the first 10 characters of the “Description”
parameter. So if “Description” was “Screw, HCS ¼” X 2” what I really want
“BOM_Description to be is just “Screw, HCS”. Does anyone have any ideas?


Thanks,


Brian

Use the Extract function.

NAME10 = EXTRACT(NAME,1,10) get 10 chars starting at character 1



If param = abcdef, then:



*

new = extract(param,2,3)-new is bcd
