Returns the specified portion of a string expression (Mid function), or replaces the portion of a string expression with another string (Mid subroutine).

Mid(string As String, Start As Long [, Length As Long]) As String
Mid([ByRef] string As String, Start As Long, [Length As Long], Text As String)

String (bara med funktion)

string: Any string expression that you want to extract (Mid function). Any text variable name that you want to modify (Mid subroutine).

Start: Numeric expression that indicates the character position within the string where the string portion that you want to replace or to return begins. The minimum allowed value is 1. The maximum allowed value is 2,147,483,648.

Length: Numeric expression that returns the number of characters that you want to replace or return. The maximum allowed value is 2,147,483,648.

Om Length-parametern i Mid-funktionen utelämnas så returneras alla tecken i stränguttrycket från startpositionen till slutet av strängen.

If the Length parameter in the Mid subroutine is less than the length of the text that you want to replace, the text is reduced to the specified length.

Text: The string to replace the string expression (Mid subroutine).
