**MIDB(), returns a specific number of characters from a text string starting at the position you specify.MIDB is intended for use with languages that use the double-byte character set (DBCS).
MIDB() displays a specific number of characters from a text string, with reference to the specified starting position and specified number of bytes.

MIDB(txt, snum, nob)
MIDB (Text,Start_Char,Num_Char)
e.g. MIDB("<#*>",1,2) displays '''<#''' as a result.

*MIDB works with the languages that use 'Double Byte Character Set' (DBCS).
*MIDB works with the languages that use 'Double Byte Character Set' (DBCS).
*MIDB counts each double byte character as 2, when language is set to DBCS. Else it counts 1 byte per character.
*MIDB counts each double byte character as 2, when language is set to DBCS. Else it counts 1 byte per character.
*If argument <math>txt</math> is directly entered in the command, it should be enclosed in double quotes (e.g. "Name").
*If argument <math>Text</math> is directly entered in the command, it should be enclosed in double quotes (e.g. "Name").
*<math>snum</math> should be > 1, else Calci displays #N/A error message.
*<math>Start-Char</math> should be > 1, else Calci displays #N/A error message.
*If <math>snum</math> > 'length of text', Calci displays empty text ("").
*If <math>Start-Char</math> > 'length of text', Calci displays empty text ("").
*If <math>snum</math> + <math>nob</math> > 'length of text', Calci displays the characters up to the end of text.
*If <math>Start-Char</math> + <math>Num_Char</math> > 'length of text', Calci displays the characters up to the end of text.
*If <math>noc</math> is negative, Calci displays an #N/A error message.
*If <math>Num_Char</math> is negative, Calci displays an #N/A error message.
