Hellow support
I have an XSLT file where I map a CSV file to XSD and export out a XML.
My question is the CSV file has field with 1 character alway in the beginning followed by text example is C232323456 I only need the 232323456 in the XML file-- Is there a way to have the XSLT file delete the first character.

Thanks

<xsl:value-of select="substring('C123', 2, string-length('C123')-1)"/>

...replacing the literal "C123" with the correct XPath expression to identify your value.

I tried this but I do not get the data from the .csv file but the field name called NRID_NUMBER__C with the value of RID_NUMBER__C in the NRID placeholder in the XML file. NRID is in the XSD file and NRID_NUMBER__C' in in the .csv file

My entry is

<xsl:attribute name="NRID">
<xsl:value-of select="substring('NRID_NUMBER__C',2,string-length('NRID_NUMBER__C')-1)"/>
</xsl:attribute>

Removing the single quotes will help:

<xsl:attribute name="NRID">
<xsl:value-of select="substring(NRID_NUMBER__C,2,string-length(NRID_NUMBER__C)-1)"/>
</xsl:attribute>
