Formula to remove text after a colon in a string field

Asked by SStroz in Crystal Reports Software

I need to search a string field for a colon ( : ) and remove the colon and any text to the right of the colon.
In other words, I want to only display the text to the left of the colon.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Steve
