Character

STUFFC(В ) is designed for expressions containing double-byte characters. If the expression contains only single-byte characters, STUFFC(В ) is equivalent to STUFF(В ).

STUFFC(В ) returns a character string created by replacing a specified number of characters in a character expression with another character expression. The character expressions can consist of any combination of single-byte and double-byte characters.

This function is useful for manipulating double-byte character sets for languages such as Hiragana and Katakana.
