Breaking up text into 2 characters

[Phil Merry]

Anyone tell me how this works and how I would build it?

I need to take a 12 character string, split into groups of two characters in one string with seperaters of a colon, yes its a MAC Address

sText = "danymaordanymaor"

-- returns a table of the string divided
tblResult = DivString(sText, 2)

--show the results in a input box
if tblResult then
for n=1, Table.Count(tblResult) do
Input.SetText("Input1", Input.GetText("Input1")..tblResult[n].."\r\n")
end
end



Thanks

Here, take a look at this APZ. On the globals there are the functions used in the project with some help in the comments



I hope it helps

T3STY - didn't work in AM6, lol

It's obvious it didn't work in AMS 6... AMS 6 (also 7.0 and 7.5) uses LUA 5.0; instead AMS 8 uses LUA 5.1. Get a look over here to understand more:

shortly: delete the pairs() function, leave only the table name to use in AMS 6/7/7.5
