Start is the position of the first character in the text to extract.

Number_bytes specifies the number of characters MIDB will return from text, in bytes.

#### Example

MIDB("中国";1;0) returns "" (0 bytes is always an empty string).

MIDB("中国";1;1) returns " " (1 byte is only half a DBCS character and therefore the result is a space character).

MIDB("中国";1;2) returns "中" (2 bytes constitute one complete DBCS character).

MIDB("中国";1;3) returns "中 " (3 bytes constitute one and a half DBCS character; the last byte results in a space character).

MIDB("中国";1;4) returns "中国" (4 bytes constitute two complete DBCS characters).

MIDB("中国";2;1) returns " " (byte position 2 is not at the beginning of a character in a DBCS string; 1 space character is returned).

MIDB("中国";2;2) returns " " (byte position 2 points to the last half of the first character in the DBCS string; the 2 bytes asked for therefore constitutes the last half of the first character and the first half of the second character in the string; 2 space characters are therefore returned).

MIDB("中国";2;3) returns " 国" (byte position 2 is not at the beginning of a character in a DBCS string; a space character is returned for byte position 2).

MIDB("中国";3;1) returns " " (byte position 3 is at the beginning of a character in a DBCS string, but 1 byte is only half a DBCS character and a space character is therefore returned instead).

MIDB("中国";3;2) returns "国" (byte position 3 is at the beginning of a character in a DBCS string, and 2 bytes constitute one DBCS character).

MIDB("office";2;3) returns "ffi" (byte position 2 is at the beginning of a character in a non-DBCS string, and 3 bytes of a non-DBCS string constitute 3 characters).

## LEFTB

Returns the first characters of a DBCS text.

This function is available since LibreOffice 4.2.

#### Syntax

LEFTB("Text" [; Number_bytes])

Text is the text where the initial partial words are to be determined.

Number_bytes (optional) specifies the number of characters you want LEFTB to extract, based on bytes. If this parameter is not defined, one character is returned.

#### Example

LEFTB("中国";1) returns " " (1 byte is only half a DBCS character and a space character is returned instead).

LEFTB("中国";2) returns "中" (2 bytes constitute one complete DBCS character).

LEFTB("中国";3) returns "中 " (3 bytes constitute one DBCS character and a half; the last character returned is therefore a space character).

LEFTB("中国";4) returns "中国" (4 bytes constitute two complete DBCS characters).

LEFTB("office";3) returns "off" (3 non-DBCS characters each consisting of 1 byte).

## RIGHTB

Returns the last character or characters of a text with double bytes characters sets (DBCS).

This function is available since LibreOffice 4.2.

#### Syntax

RIGHTB("Text" [; Number_bytes])

Text is the text of which the right part is to be determined.

Number_bytes (optional) specifies the number of characters you want RIGHTB to extract, based on bytes.

#### Example

RIGHTB("中国";1) returns " " (1 byte is only half a DBCS character and a space character is returned instead).

RIGHTB("中国";2) returns "国" (2 bytes constitute one complete DBCS character).

RIGHTB("中国";3) returns " 国" (3 bytes constitute one half DBCS character and one whole DBCS character; a space is returned for the first half).

RIGHTB("中国";4) returns "中国" (4 bytes constitute two complete DBCS characters).

RIGHTB("office";3) returns "ice" (3 non-DBCS characters each consisting of 1 byte).

## FIND

Returns the position of a string of text within another string.You can also define where to begin the search. The search term can be a number or any string of characters. The search is case-sensitive.

#### Syntax

FIND("FindText"; "Text" [; Position])

BarruuBarbaadi barruu barbaadamuu qabu agarsiisa.

Barruun barruu bakkatti barbaachi gaggeeffamudha.

Qubannoon (dirqala) qubannoo barruu keessaa bakka irraa barbaachi eegaludha.

#### Example

=FIND(76;998877665544) 6 kenna.

## SEARCH

Returns the position of a text segment within a character string. You can set the start of the search as an option. The search text can be a number or any sequence of characters. The search is not case-sensitive. If the text is not found, returns error 519 (#VALUE).

The search supports wildcards or regular expressions. With regular expressions enabled, you can enter "all.*", for example to find the first location of "all" followed by any characters. If you want to search for a text that is also a regular expression, you must either precede every character with a "\" character, or enclose the text into \Q...\E. You can switch the automatic evaluation of wildcards or regular expression on and off in LibreOffice - PreferencesTools - Options - LibreOffice Calc - Calculate.

When using functions where one or more arguments are search criteria strings that represents a regular expression, the first attempt is to convert the string criteria to numbers. For example, ".0" will convert to 0.0 and so on. If successful, the match will not be a regular expression match but a numeric match. However, when switching to a locale where the decimal separator is not the dot makes the regular expression conversion work. To force the evaluation of the regular expression instead of a numeric expression, use some expression that can not be misread as numeric, such as ".[0]" or ".\0" or "(?i).0".

#### Syntax

SEARCH("FindText"; "Text" [; Position])

BarruuBarbaadi barbaadamuu qabudha.

Barruun barruu iddootti barbaachi gaggeeffamudha.

Qubannoon (dirqala) iddoo barruu keessaa bakkatti barbaachi jalqabamudha.

#### Example

=SEARCH(54;998877665544) 10 deebisa.
