--- Comment #3 from Rafael Lima <rafael.palma.l...@gmail.com> ---
Forget about my Comment #2 above. I tested it wrong.
Now I ran the following code:
Sub TestMid
Dim MyString
MyString = "The dog jumps" ' Initialize string.
Mid(MyString, 5, 3) = "fox"
MsgBox MyString
Mid(MyString, 5) = "cow"
MsgBox MyString
Mid(MyString, 5) = "cow jumped over" ' MyString =
MsgBox MyString
Mid(MyString, 5, 3) = "duck" ' MyString =
MsgBox MyString
End Sub
In MS VBA we get:
"The fox jumps"
"The cow jumps"
"The cow jumpe"
"The duc jumpe"
In LO Basic we get:
"The fox jumps"
"The cow"
"The cow"
"The duc"
It seems that when you omit the "Length" argument, LO Basic cuts off the
remainder of the string.
Also, when the resulting string is larger than the original string, MS VBA cuts
off the difference and keeps the string length, whereas LO Basic increases the
string length.
So yeah, I believe they both should work the same way.
