Hi,

I have a field with 10 characters, but I need to label only the last 5 characters from that field. Can I do it using Maplex or any other option in ArcGIS?
I don't want to create a new field with last 5 characters and use that for labeling.Please let me know.

Thanks
Anand

The easiest way to do this is with Label expressions. In the layer Properties dialog, click on the Labels tab, then click on the Expression button. Use the expression

Right([yourfield],5)
