Hi,

You can use substring to retrieve the part of the string after a certain character

Assign - Text (Type String) = "Shared preference:Mail"
Text.Substring(Text.IndexOf(":"c) + 1)

Hi, you can use an split:

Assign:

ArrayResult = (“Shared preference:Mail”).Split(New char() {":"c})

then take the number 1 of the split:

I will assume your string “Shared preference:Mail” is in a variable called str1 of type string.

created a new string variable: MyString = str1.Split(":"c)(1)

This takes your string variable, and splits it into an array of strings based on the colon (:) character. Since your string has 1 colon in it, it will bring it into an array of 2 strings. The first one (index = 0) will be “Shared preference” and the second one (index = 1) will be “Mail”
