You could fold the string into a dynamic array and use remove:
STR.VAR= "Some really really long string that has lots and lots of characters for test processing." FOLDED.VAR=FOLD(STR.VAR,1); *creates dynarray of single characters
LOOP REMOVE ACHAR FROM FOLDED.VAR SETTING MARK UNTIL NOT(MARK) and ACHAR="" DO * any character processing on ACHAR REPEAT
I'm not sure of any actual performance gain compared with simply STR.VAR[x,1] but it's at least an alternate approach.
