    Declaration

    Source position: strutils.pp line 66

    function StartsStr(const ASubText: string; const AText: string)
                   : Boolean;

    Description

    StartsStr checks whether aText starts with aSubText and returns True if it does. i.e. it returns true if the first characters of aText are aSubText. It follows that the length of aText must be at least the length of aSubText. The comparison is made case-sensitive. If you wish to compare case-insentively, use StartsText instead.
