HELP!

I know I must be missing something, or MM is missing something...

I am having problems with this...

What I want is to *truncate* filename fields that are over a certain length.

According to the help file:

field:n PRE-*PADS* spaces to the length specified

field:-n POST-*PADS* spaces to the length specified

How can I simply *TRUNCATE* filename fields that are over certain lengths (so I don't keep running into 256 path\filename limits in windows)????

The problem is that you have various fields and the combination shouldn't be longer. So if you use field:n you would need to define it for various fields so the total isn't too long.

Yes, I have different fields specified to certain lenghts, however _SPACES_ are padded before ora after the field.

There does not appear to be a way to truncate a field to a length, without padding smaller fields.
