RemoveLeading (string, count [, boolInBytes])
Result Type: Text
Definition: Returns the remainder of the string after removing the specified number of characters from the beginning.
Examples: RemoveLeading("nybble", 3) — returns “ble”.
If boolInBytes is true or IN_BYTES (which is a constant with value true), then the count is regarded as bytes, not characters. This option should only be used when the string is known to be pure ASCII. It is much faster because it does not account for multibyte unicode characters.
Availability: v9.0.8 and later
