Variable named Pos will contain a delimited string. You can use the Field() function to parse it, or you can use dynamic array notation. The delimiter character is a value mark (@VM). So, to get the third value, you could use Field(Pos, @VM, 3, 1) or Pos<1,3> or Pos[@VM,3,1] or Extract(Pos,1,3,0) (t...
