CHANGE

The CHANGE function operates on a variable and replaces all occurrences of one string with another.

COMMAND SYNTAX

CHANGE( variable, expression1, expression2 )

SYNTAX ELEMENTS

expression1 may evaluate to any result and is the string of characters that will be replaced. expression2 may also evaluate to any result and is the string of characters that will replace expression1. The variable may be any previously assigned variable in the program.

NOTES

Either string can be of any length and is not required to be the same length. See also the SWAP function.  The jBC language also supports the CHANGE statement.

EXAMPLES

String1 = "Jim"
String2 = "James"
Variable = "Pick up the tab Jim"
CRT CHANGE( Variable, String1, String2)
CRT CHANGE( Variable, "tab", "check")
