String function to hide text after a character

Hi all.

Can anyone suggest a string function that will hide part of a string after a certain character? For example:

  • Replace this:  What I need to see - what I don't want to see in this report
  • With this: What I need to see

NB: The number of characters before the "-" is dependent on user, so substr(str, start_pos, [length]) is usable, but not ideal.

Thanks in advance. 

Cheers, Lisa
