STRTRAN_MULTI Function
Syntax
Output_String as C = STRTRAN_MULTI(C character,C substrings,C replacements)
Arguments
- Output_String
The character string produced by the replacement operation.
- character
The character string to search.
- substrings
A list of character strings to look for.
- replacements
A list of character strings to replace found instances of character strings on the substrings. Elements of the substrings and replacements are paired.
Description
Replaces occurrences of strings in one cr-lf list with strings in another cr-lf list - compare is case sensitive.
Discussion
STRTRAN_MULTI() creates a character string by replacing occurrences of entries in the substrings found in the character string to search with the corresponding entries in the replacements. The substrings argument is case sensitive.
Example
dim ss as C dim rs as C dim ts as C ts = "ab1 ab2 cd1 cd2" ss = "ab" + crlf() + "cd" + crlf() rs = "AB" + crlf() + "CD" + crlf() stritran_multi(ts, ss, rs) -> "AB1 AB2 CD1 CD2"
