listRemove function

Syntax

• string listRemove(stringList, searchString)

Parameters

1. stringList—string
2. searchString—string

Returns

Removes first occurrence of searchString from stringList.

Description

The listRemove function removes the first occurrence of searchString from the stringList. Optional: leading or trailing * in searchString are used as wildcard.

Note:

Stringlists are a series of strings stored inside one string. The elements are separated by a semicolon (";"). Each item must be followed by a semicolon, also the last one! The data type is "string", thus it is not an array as used in other scripting languages.
