Bug ID: 132390
Summary: BASIC: Replace's Start argument needs clarifying
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Documentation
Assignee: [email protected]

Replace's Start argument is documented in help [1] as "Numeric expression that
indicates the character position within the string where the search shall
begin. The maximum allowed value is 65535."
But it's not only that; it is also the start of the substring to be returned.
This is how it's implemented, and also consistent with analogous VBA function
[2].
E.g., Replace("ABCDE", "C", "*", 2) will return "B*DE", starting from the
position 2. This needs to be documented in help.
