I need to get part of a string from an audit string.

I am currently using mid, but i am fairly new to ColdFusion and wondered if there was a better way.

The string looks like this

"1990-12-01+10:40:02,username,description"

I need to get all entries for a month, currently using mid, is this the best approach

mid(me, 6, 2)

If the string will always be in that format what you have made will be fine. This will also work:

<cfscript>
    myString = "1990-12-01+10:40:02,username,description";
    writeOutput(listGetAt(myString,2,"-"));
</cfscript>
