Insert String

 

Inserts a string at a specified location (offset) in another string.

 

For example, inserting the string ' Frederick' in the string 'Joe Bloggs' at an offset of the variable iNameLength (which holds that number of characters in the name Joe), results in the string 'Joe Frederick Bloggs'.

The action cell is useful for constructing SMS messages using the SMS action cell.
