' The SetNth method is handy for setting a part of a delimited string.
' For example:

set sb = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.StringBuilder")
success = sb.Append("red,blue,""green,purple"",,yellow")

delimiterChar = ","
exceptDoubleQuoted = 1
exceptEscaped = 1

success = sb.SetNth(2,"magenta",delimiterChar,exceptDoubleQuoted,exceptEscaped)
' Prints "red,blue,magenta,,yellow"
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( sb.GetAsString()) & "</pre>"

success = sb.SetNth(3,"orange",delimiterChar,exceptDoubleQuoted,exceptEscaped)
' Prints "red,blue,magenta,orange,yellow"
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( sb.GetAsString()) & "</pre>"

' What happens if we start with an empty string?
sb.Clear 

success = sb.SetNth(2,"apple",delimiterChar,exceptDoubleQuoted,exceptEscaped)
' Prints ",,apple"
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( sb.GetAsString()) & "</pre>"

success = sb.SetNth(0,"orange",delimiterChar,exceptDoubleQuoted,exceptEscaped)
' Prints "orange,,apple"
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( sb.GetAsString()) & "</pre>"

success = sb.SetNth(1,"banana",delimiterChar,exceptDoubleQuoted,exceptEscaped)
' Prints "orange,banana,apple"
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( sb.GetAsString()) & "</pre>"
