Type
| Function |
|
Description
| Inserts a string connected to IN2 in a given string connected to IN1. The input string at IN2 is inserted in IN1 after character position P. |
|
Notes
|
- P cannot be 0. The first position in a string is 1. If you want to insert a string before another use the CONCAT function.
- Do not use the same string as input and output string because the output string will add up until the output string is too short and the string is cleared.
