var
Source, Target : string;
begin
Source := '12345678';
Target := Copy(Source, 3, 4); // Target now = '3456'
Target := '12345678';
Insert('-+-', Target, 3); // Target now = '12-+-345678'
Target := '12345678';
Delete(Target, 3, 4); // Target now = '1278'
Target := StringOfChar('S', 5); // Target now = 'SSSSS'
Source := 'This is a way to live A big life';
// Target set to 'This is THE way to live THE big life'
Target := StringReplace(before, ' a ', ' THE ',
[rfReplaceAll, rfIgnoreCase]);
end;
