Hello,

 

Although I'm told 'Mid' is a bit anachronistic, in VB you can use:

Dim s As String = "test string"

Mid(s, 7, 1) = "p"

 

In C# you can use: 

string s = "test string";

var sb = new StringBuilder(s); 

sb[7] = 'p';

s = sb.ToString();

In python, there are a bunch of different ways to do this. Here's one way using string slices

 

s = "M2363_7034_574523"

s = s[:6] + "0" + s[7:]
