It works the same but the definition of the start is different.  Use:
@Mid(A1,3,2)

You have answers to your question.

I notice you mention version 8 in your subject line.  There are QPro 
groups for various versions.  For future reference, the group for 
version 10 and earlier is:

This works here: @MID(A1,3,2)

QP starts counting at 0 - the number is not cardinal but an offset.

Qpro V8 : How to extract a few characters in between ?

Dear Sir,

May I know how to select a few characters from a cell:

Eg:
        A                           B
1  PKHCN2147           CN
2  PKHDJ6415             DJ
3  PKHTY8741            TY

In Excel I used =MID(A1,4,2) at cell B1, but this formula is not working in 
Q Pro.

May I know what should be the formula ?

Thanks

Low
