Modifying a varibale is a topic for it's own. You should really know
what you do. And the next is, when you try to modify a pointer
(and "buffer" is a pointer) you will run into problems.
OK, here two ways to modify the "buffer" (both not tested, but
should work). Hit Ctrl+F4 on "buffer" and then modify each
character with 

buffer[...]='x'

(replace "..." with the needed index
and "'x'" with the wanted character).

OR use the feature to call a function of your program. Simply type in
the Ctr+F4 dialog 

strcpy(buffer,"New string")

and hit ENTER.
