LEFT(text_value, num_chars)

Text_value is a piece of text or reference to some text starting with a substring you want to retrieve.

Num_chars indicate the number of characters retrieved from the beginning of text_value. An error value is returned if this argument is less than zero. If this argument exceeds the length of text_value, then all of text_value is retrieved. If omitted, the first character of text_value is retrieved.
