More STRING commands

[hpw]

Hello Steve,

From the STRING PARSE wish thread:

>>Yes. More with string manipulation the better.

Similar to other scripting enviroments or the .NET functions:


1 | RUN ACTION |  STRING SEARCH | Some textstring | text | %pos_variable%
1 | RUN ACTION |  STRING SEARCH | %SourceString% | %ToSearchStr% | %pos_variable%
Result is 0 when not found

1 | RUN ACTION |  STRING INSERT | %SourceString% | %ToInsertStr% | %pos_variable% | %DestString%

1 | RUN ACTION |  STRING DELETE | %SourceString% | %pos_variable% | %length_variable% | %DestString%

1 | RUN ACTION |  STRING LENGTH | %SourceString% | %len_variable%

1 | RUN ACTION |  STRING SUBSTR | %SourceString% | %pos_variable% | %length_variable% | %DestString%

1 | RUN ACTION |  STRING LOWER | %SourceString% | %DestString%

1 | RUN ACTION |  STRING UPPER | %SourceString% | %DestString%

1 | RUN ACTION |  STRING POPULATE | %SourceString% | %DestString%
Replaces all %variables% in %SourceString% with their content.

1 | RUN ACTION |  STRING TO CLIPBOARD| %SourceString%

1 | RUN ACTION |  STRING FROM CLIPBOARD| %DestString%


Should help for most string jobs. ;-)

Great - I like this.

Thank you.

Can you write code? I am totally scrapped for time. If you can write the code, i'd love to see it. It would be a great help.
