break string
Hi,

I have the same problem but with more delimeters, i can't know the kind of the 
first delimeter. 
  e.g  <Value>[Alpha, Beta; Gamma: Alpha .Beta]</Value> 

In my project I am dealing with at least 10 delimeters ? 
  
can I use tokenize() ? should I  download libraries to use this function?
