I have a variable: contract_code_full

An example value for this variable is '40/IT5AFKLE'

I want to split it and store what is BEFORE the '/' in a new variable. i.e. the '40'

My Code:

<%
contract_code_full = Mid(Matches.Item(9).SubMatches(0), 2) & "<br />"
response.write "Contract Code (Full) = " & contract_code_full & "<br>"

contract_after_split = Split(contract_code_full,"/")
response.write "con = " & contract_after_split & "<br>"
%>

response.write "Contract Code (Full) = " & contract_code_full & "<br>" WORKS

response.write "con = " & contract_after_split & "<br>" DOESNT WORK.

thanks. i tried this:

<%
contract_code_full = Mid(Matches.Item(9).SubMatches(0), 2) & "<br />"
response.write "Contract Code (Full) = " & contract_code_full & "<br>"

contract_after_split = Split(contract_code_full,"/")
for i=0 to 0(contract_after_split)
cont_post_split = Split(contract_after_split(0),"/")
response.write "contract = " & (contract_after_split(0)) & "<br>"
'response.write "cont_post_split = " & cont_post_split & "<br>"
next
cont = contract_after_split(0)
response.write cont
%>
