This article describes how the same functionality can be used with earlier versions of Visual Basic. MORE INFORMATION
The following additional string functions are present in Visual Basic 6.0:
Description ----------Used to join arrays elements. Split a string into a variant array. Similar to InStr but searches from end of string. To find a particular string and replace it. To reverse a string.
If these functions are coded and added in a module, all the above functions can be used in the project as if they are intrinsic functions.

note in the debug window that the array elements are joined. Click on Split to split a string into a variant array. 119. Pause the project by pressing the CTRL+BREAK key
combination or clicking the Pause button on the toolbar. Test the remaining functions by typing the following lines in the immediate window and verifying the results:
?instrrev("//drive/dir","/") 8
