To replace a portion of one string with another string.
MID$(stringexp1,n[,m])=stringexp2
Both n and m are integer expressions.
stringexp1 and stringexp2 are string expressions.
The characters in stringexp1, beginning at position n, are replaced by the characters in stringexp2.
The optional m refers to the number of characters from stringexp2 that are used in the replacement. If m is omitted, all of stringexp2 is used.
Whether m is omitted or included, the replacement of characters never goes beyond the original length of stringexp1.
