Select String Tag and Build String Argument

When you select a

String command

in a Process block, a list of parameter types

for that command appears. The first parameter, Destination String, displays a
String Tag Select dialog when selected. You can enter only one tag reference as
the string tag field.

The second and following parameters that appear depend on the selected string
command. You may enter a Source String, Number of Chars, Start Position, String
to Insert, or Replacement String. When you select any of these parameters, the
Build String Argument dialog box appears so you can define the remaining
arguments.

You can enter math and Boolean logic for the string command argument, but
you must enclose Boolean expressions in brackets. You cannot compare values
(greater than or less than), and you can only use the AND Boolean operator.
