This activity replaces a portion of the input string. The portion replaced is determined by the specified starting position and length.


Note

For best performance, we advise that you limit use of activities such as this to non-intensive parts of your solution.  In particular, you should avoid extensive string manipulations at a process orchestration level inside iterative parts of your solution.  Extensive string manipulation is usually a task best performed in compiled program code.
