Discussion
This function returns a string consisting of the rightmost characters of the string passed as the first
parameter.  The maximum number of characters in the returned string is the smaller of 1) the number of
characters in the passed string and 2) the value of the second parameter.  Internally, the length is
interpereted as a 16-bit signed value and negative values are treated as zero.
This function produces the same result as Mid(str, Len(str) – length + 1 , length)
assuming that the passed string is at least length characters long.
Example
Dim s as String, s2 as String
s = "Hello, world!"
s2 = Right(s, 6)
' the result will be "world!"
