Basic String Operations
PV-WAVE supports several basic string operations.
Concatenating Strings
The addition operator, +, is used to concatenate strings.
Formatting
The STRING function is used to format data into a string.
Converting to Upper or Lower Case
The STRLOWCASE function returns a copy of its string argument converted to lower case. Similarly, the STRUPCASE function converts its argument to upper case.
Removing White Space
The STRCOMPRESS and STRTRIM functions can be used to eliminate unwanted white space (blanks or tabs) from their string arguments.
Determining String Length
The STRLEN function returns the length of its string argument.
Manipulating Substrings
The STRPOS, STRPUT, and STRMID routines locate, insert, and extract substrings from their string arguments.
