How to remove only the last element of spreadsheet string

[indhu]

I use path to string option to store image path into database and while retrieving the string is again converted into path but it gives out an error as the output of array to spreadsheet string gives out a tab at the end which is unable for the IMAQ read file to recognise.but when i use the path of the image directly into IMAQ readfile the image is opened . so how to remove the tab only at the end of output of the spreadsheet string(whose length can vary)? I have also attached my program with this.

Thanks for your reply!
But my problem is to remove only the last element(which is a tab or an alphabet) from a spreadsheet string of any length.

Sorry then ! I thought it was a problem of conversion.
here's an image to help you remove the last element of a string (it can be any ASCII element)

Hope this helps !

If you just want to remove the last character of a string just use the
String Size function reduce the result by one and wire it together with
the string to the Split String function.
