looking for some way for my code to strip the last words after -

so what i need to do is get it to take that PI and insert it into a table on my database

can this be achived through something like this

set player [lindex $result 0];

i know thats not gonna work above

thx

If the piece of information is always at a given offset, you could use "string range"; if the string is a character-delimited list, you could use "split" to convert it to a tcl-list which then is suitable for commands such as lindex, lrange, and so forth. A third option would be to use regular expressions to use pattern-search to retrieve the value.

Once you've retreaved the piece of information, how you store it in your database would be a matter on what kind of data-storage you use, how you interface with it (any modules/plugins?), etc.
