Example
In this example, *MtxtCust01 is a multilingual variable containing the following:
"&1 &2 has a limit of $&3"
#Givename, #Surname and #Limit have values of 'Veronica ', 'Brown ' and '2000' respectively.
The result at run-time would be:
Veronica Brown has a limit of $2000.
#Com_owner.caption := *MtxtCust01.Substitute(#Givename #Surname #Limit.AsString)
Note: If two ampersands appear together in a string, they are reduced to a single ampersand and not considered for substitution.
For example:
#str1 := "&1&&2"
#str2 := #str1.Substitute( "a" "b" )
#str2 will equal "a&2"
