Nice. I had previously complained about the clumsy syntax of STRMID when you just want to a single substring from each element of a string array. (You can't use a scalar to specify the first position or string length -- http://www.idlcoyote.com/code_tips/strmidvec.html ) But when you want to extract multiple substrings from each element of a string array then the syntax becomes elegant.
