#include <String.au3>
$sString = "manny1"
for $a=StringLen($sString) to 1 step -2
        $sString=_StringInsert ($sString, "00",$a)
Next
MsgBox (0,"Hello" , "Your String After Inserting 00's  " & $sString ,0)

Thank you very much that works just fine... (:

Glad I could help ... you may want to remove the extra message box from the for loop like I did in my edited post ...

Mannyfresh15,

Or you could do something like this:

$sString = "manny1"

$aRet = StringRegExp($sString, "(.{2})", 3)

$sNewString = ""

For $i = 0 To UBound($aRet) - 1
    $sNewString &= $aRet[$i] & "00"
Next

MsgBox(0, "Result", $sNewString)

Meh I'll throw my 2 cents into the pot.  

$sString = "manny1"
$sNewString = StringRegExpReplace($sString, "(.{2})", "${0}00")
MsgBox(0, "Result", $sNewString)

 

One Liner just for fun:

MsgBox(0, "Results", StringRegExpReplace("Manny1", "(..)", "${0}00"))

My 2 cents 

$sString = "manny1"
$sNewString = StringRegExpReplace($sString, '..\K', "00")
MsgBox(0, "Result", $sNewString)

@mikell thanks for those cents

I am so curious... What's the use?  This sounds like the kind of thing that solves a problem that need not be there in the first place, i.e. it may be useful to explain the bigger picture, maybe you'll get some better ideas?
