YAR (Yet Another Request) - toml_12953 - 03-30-2017 02:39 PM
Maybe there's already an easy way to do this but I haven't found it. I'd like to be able to change characters in a string simply. It would be something like this:
PHP Code:
MYSTRING:="1234567890";
MYSTRING(4,4):="X";
PRINT(MYSTRING);
which prints 123X567890
Right now, I'm doing this:
PHP Code:
MYSTRING:="1234567890";
MYSTRING:=LEFT(MYSTRING,3)+"X"+MID(MYSTRING,5);
PRINT(MYSTRING);
which works but is inelegant.

REPLACE("1234567890",4,"XXX")

Hello,
Not sure exactly what you want to do, but you can also do:
mystring(4):= "abc" to place abc starting at pos 4 in the string...
