Hi,

This is probably a simple one but I couldn't find anything in the documentation that mentions it.

How would you return a specific character from a string in an equation question? As an example; a survey respondent enters their name in the fields with the codes {firstname}{middlename}{lastname} and from these completed fields we want to return their initials (first letter in each name) in the equation field?

Many thanks in advance!

Nevermind! It's just regular old substr.

So for this example it would just be;

{substr(firstname,0)}{substr(Q00006,0)}{substr(Q00006,0)}
