Q:
I am working on the script for Outlook 2003. Does anyone know how to read partial text in a variable, for a Windows application?

For example I have username as testdrive/jdeo, and I need to get "jdeo" from the username and assign it to a textbox.

A:
Try using the RegSplit command:
RegSplit "testdrive/(.*)" $Username ?Name. This should fill the ?Name with the name you want entered. You can check this with MessageBox ?Name
