function LeftStr(const AString: WideString; const Count: Integer): WideString; overload;
Returns a string containing a specified number of characters from the left side of a string.
AString represents a string expression from which the leftmost characters are returned. Count indicates how many characters to return. If 0, a zero-length string ("") is returned. If greater than or equal to the number of characters in AString, the entire string is returned.
