  Key Concepts: 
  A string function is a type of ABAP function that is used to manipulate character strings. It can be used to search for, replace, or extract substrings from a given string. It can also be used to convert strings to upper or lower case, and to compare two strings. 
  
  How to use it: 
  String functions are used in the ABAP Runtime Environment (BC-ABA) of SAP. To use a string function, you must first declare the function in the program and then call it with the appropriate parameters. The parameters can include the source string, the search string, and the replacement string. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using string functions, it is important to remember that they are case-sensitive. This means that if you are searching for a substring in a given string, you must specify whether you want to search for an uppercase or lowercase version of the substring.
