instr function in reverse ??? - doppler - 02-10-2023
Here is a bit to knock around.
I have a standard routine I use to find the last occurrence of a character in a string. Happens to be "\". Using a do loop to search out a string is easy. Looking to make it faster. Would it be beneficial, to specify the direction of search in instr function? Forward or reverse order.
I am think more of an enhancement to instr function. if it's more trouble than it's worth, I will just continue with what I got.
