Hello,
If the op says he has tried strsplit, maybe a simple subsetting
afterwards would solve it.
a <- "12345_mydata"
strsplit(a, "_")[[1]][1]
Hope this helps,

Is this what you want:
a<- "12345_mydata"
sub("_.*", "", a)
[1] "12345"

Hi,
here im unable to run a string handle function called unpaste().
for eg:- a<- "12345_mydata"
Actually my requirement what is i need to get , only 12345. Means that , i
need the all letter as a word which is before of first " _ " - symbol of
"a". i tried to do with unpaste, it says function not found. After that i
tried with "strsplit() ". it ran, but again i need to write another method
to get again after spliting.
Any other good method is there for this requirement ?
- Thanks
Antony.
