Answer1:
And return the delimited fields as a list of string? Sound like a perl split function. This could be built on one of your own containing:
[ ] //knocked this together in a few min. I am sure there is a much more efficent way of doing things
[ ] //but this is with the cobling together of several built in functions
[-] LIST OF STRING Split(STRING sDelim, STRING sData)
[ ] LIST OF STRING lsReturn
[ ] STRING sSegment
[-] while MatchStr("*{sDelim}*", sData)
[ ] sSegment = GetField(sData, sDelim, 1)
[ ] ListAppend(lsReturn, Trim(sSegment))
[ ] //crude chunking:
[ ] sSegment += ","
[ ] sData = GetField(sData, sSegment, 2)
[-] if Len(sData) > 0
[ ] ListAppend(lsReturn, Trim(sData))
[ ] return lsReturn


Answer2:
You could use something like this.... hope I am understanding the problem
[+] testcase T1()
[ ] string sTest = "hello, there I am happy"
[ ] string sTest1 = (GetField (sTest, ",", 2))
[ ] Print(sTest1)
[ ]
[ ] This Prints "there I am happy"
[ ] GetField(sTest,","1)) would Print hello, etc....

Answer3:
Below is the function which return all fields (list of String).
[+] LIST OF STRING ConvertToList (STRING sStr, STRING sDelim)
[ ] INTEGER iIndex= 1
[ ] LIST OF STRING lsStr
[ ] STRING sToken = GetField (sStr, sDelim, iIndex)
[ ]
[+] if (iIndex == 1 && sToken == "")
[ ] iIndex = iIndex + 1
[ ] sToken = GetField (sStr, sDelim, iIndex)
[ ]
[+] while (sToken != "")
[ ] ListAppend (lsStr, sToken)
[ ] iIndex = iIndex+1
[ ] sToken = GetField (sStr, sDelim, iIndex)
[ ] return lsStr
