My goodness Doug! This StringContainsFromRight sounds like a rather useful 
puppy to have known about for lots of people! Thanks for sharing it.

I'm gonna write to eric right now and ask him why this function isn't 
included in the list of functions that comes up
in Script manager after hitting control+I then tabbing once to that list of 
functions.
And, of course it begs the question, How many other functions might there be 
like this!

Would you perhaps care to compile a list of them that you know about? Then 
we could ask Erric to get them all included!
I'm looking in version 12 right now though.
