Remove characters from end of string

[Del]

I have a string that varies in length and I want to remove 16 characters from
the end of it. What code is available to do this?

For a string called s, the code would be:

s = Left$(s, Len(s) - 16)

Sometimes I get into a fog and can't see a thing. That is a much simpler way
than what I was headed toward. Thanks for the rapid response.

Left(string, Len(string)-16)
