 Posted: Wed Feb 19, 2003 5:19 pm Post subject: String replace? |
 |
|
I'm having some problems.
I couldn't find help in the help file but this might have been discussed here before.
Anyways, I want to replace the " " (space) with the letter "+" in a single string. How can I do this?

Thanks for the reply.
I'm really new at VDS and that was kinda way over my head at the moment 
Isn't there a simple stringreplace command in VDS? If not, it should be 
Anyways, I'll try to figure something out

Nope, there's no straightforward S&R in VDS. Could be one for the wish list, though.
If you don't wanna do it the more complicated way in pure VDS, then there are
a couple of DLL's which can help you:
VDSXFN
and
VDSSTR (in the VDSDLL3 package)

The following code will only work for VDS 4 and up.
| Code: |
%%search = " "
%%replace = "+"
%%source = "This is a test sentence."
repeat
%p = @pos(%%search,%%source)
if @greater(%p,0)
%%source = @strdel(%%source,%p)
%%source = @strins(%%source,%p,%%replace)
end
until @zero(%p)
|
Hope this helps.

Hey Bill,
Actually, that code works in VDS3 as well... 
Cheers, Mac

| If you want to use plain VDS code, you could also take a look at my website: http://www.skit3000.tk/ In the VDS section you can find a piece of code called "VDS String", which has got a lot of string manipulate functions like those in the DLL Dr. Dread mentioned... |

Yeah, nice code. Your site was one of the first one I looked at when I started VDS about 4-5 days ago
