Return value
String. Returns the rightmost n characters in string if it succeeds and the empty string ("") if an error occurs.
If n is greater than or equal to the length of the string, RightA returns the entire string. It does not add spaces to make the return value's length equal to n.
Usage
RightA replaces the functionality that Right had in DBCS environments in PowerBuilder 9. In SBCS environments, Right and RightA return the same results.
