FMP v9 adv. Win XP

Long time ago I discovered you can get some info on an imported picture that
is in a container by defining a simple calculation.

MyContainer
cMyInfo < text ; MyContainer >

When I have imported the picture in the first field the second returns
something like this:
size:216,222
image:MyPic.jpg
imagewin:/C:/Documents and Settings/Ursus/MyPic.jpg

Now I want to work with this data and filter off the last bit. Whatever I
tried I can't do it. Even performing a Length ( cMyInfo ) < Number > returns
a 0. It seems like this information is not realy there. Any type of
position, right, left (etc) returns nonsense. Tried GetAsText also, but no
result.

Anyone any idea?

Keep well, Ursus

Some more on this.

it does work when i use separate calculattion. But it doesn't work when I
use a LET

Let ( [
FULL = MyContainer ;
LENG = Length ( Full ) ] ;
full & "¶" & GetAsText ( LENG )
)

This returns length as 0
