' The GetAfterFinal method returns the contents of the string after the final occurrence of
' the marker string.  If the remove flag is 1, then both the returned string AND
' the marker are removed.

' If the marker is not found, then the entire string is returned and the sb is cleared.

    substr = sb.GetAfterFinal(marker,removeFlag)
    Debug.Print "substr = " & substr & ", sb contains: " & sb.GetAsString()
Loop

' Output:

' substr = 333, sb contains: 111--222
