func strins
String insert. Returns a string after inserting another string into the
source string.
Syntax
strins (insert source position)
Formal Declaration
strins:str (insert:str source:str position:u16)
Parameters
insert The string to be inserted into source.
source The source string into which insert is to be inserted.
position The position where insert is to be inserted in source.
String indices are
1-based. (That is, indices are 1, 2, 3,... rather than
0, 1, 2,...) If position is greater than the string
length of source, insert is appended to source.
Examples
$nmdebug > var name "Smith, "
$nmdebug > wl strins(name, "Dear Ms. How are You?", 10)
Dear Ms. Smith, How are You?
Insert the string variable NAME into a literal string at position 10.
$nmdebug > wl strins(" NOW!", "Go Home", 100):"qo"
"Go Home NOW!"
Insert "NOW!" into the source at position 100. Since the source is only
seven characters long, "NOW!" is appended at the end of the source
string.
Limitations, Restrictions
If the resultant string is larger than the maximum supported string
length (see the STRMAX function), it is truncated.
