  Subject: [jawsscripts] Character Index in String?

  Hopefully, this is an easy question for you guys.I want to remove all 
characters in a string after the occurrence of a certain character, lets say 
":", and including that character.  I looked at the StringLeft and 
StringContainsChars functions.  To have these two functions work together, the 
StringContainsChars would need to return the index where the character was 
found rather than just a Boolean True or false.  Are there more appropriate 
functions or methods to accomplish this simple task.  
  For instance I want to transform the string 
  "Menu:only available in To DVD mode"
  to
  "Menu"
