Dim success As Boolean
success = False

Dim sb As New Chilkat.StringBuilder

// Load a file that contains this string:  0123456789ABCDEF
success = sb.LoadFile("qa_data/txt/remove_chars.txt","utf-8")

// Return "56789A" from the string.
// if removeFlag is True, the returned string is also removed from the sb.
Dim removeFlag As Boolean
removeFlag = True
Dim result As String
result = sb.GetRange(5,6,removeFlag)

System.DebugLog(result)
System.DebugLog(sb.GetAsString())

// Output is: 
// 
// 56789A
