Get string inside brackets - Using Scan from string

Solved!
Go to solution

I have a very basic question here. I would like extract a portion of a string which is inside brackets (Example: I work with [National Instruments]). In the string I only want to extract National Instruments, I do know logic to extract by finding the brackets and extracting them. But I am interested in using the Scan from string or possibly any other primitive in one shot. Please suggest if anyone has any idea, I am really not use to the format specifiers. I got this link for reference but I am not able to figure out a solution.

Hi,

 

I cannot say that it is the best solution, I use two Scan From String functions instead of one but it does work, so far 😉

 

I use Characters in set.

I could not attach VI so FP is below.

I did this already and got it working. But earlier I have seen extracting the string using a single primitive and thats why I posted specifically for that. Thanks for the response.
