Pick list refresher course

Hello, it's been a while.

Here's what I'm looking at.
If this is left to right....

If @Left (sFieldName, 2) <> ".." And @Right (sFieldName, 2) = ".."
     {
           sStart = @left (sFieldName, @in (sFieldName, "..") - 1) + @chr (1)
           sEnd = @left (sFieldName,   @in (sFieldName, "..") - 1) + "zzzzzzz"
     }

what is ..

If @Left (sFieldName, 2) = ".." And @Right (sFieldName, 2) <> ".."

thank you for any assistance.
  
It's not what a man says that matters or how he says it, but what he does and how he does it.

That code is checking the value of sFieldName to see if the first 2 characters ARE ".." AND that the last 2 characters(the rightmost 2) of the value of sFieldName are NOT ".."
