You probably mean: <%=RTrim(RsNews("story")) %> But I don't know what you are trying to do with the ",10"

I'm taking a stab and saying that KRM probably means
<%= mid(RsNews("story"),1,10) %>
It would help if you told us exactly what you're looking to do.;) The code I provided you returns only the first ten characters of RsNews("story").

Hi guys, Thanks for the replies. It was actually <%= Left(RsNews("storydetails"),100) %> I was looking for to return the first 100 characters of the field. Is that the correct statement? Thanks :)

Yup...that's correct. The function that I mentioned in my previous post does a fairly similar function. It will return the characters between your start index and length....so to accomplish the same thing you did, you'd use:
<%= Mid(RsNews("storydetails"),1,100)%>
