I had to dig to find this one, and it turns out that it was an answer to me. In message 91386 on 1998/04/12 you were telling me to replace ALL instances of a string in a memo field (in a VCX file) by using an array to look for the posisions of all the occurences of the string, and then replace them LAST TO FIRST, so their positions don't move. I thought that was a great idea. Going BACKWARDS gave me the accuracy that I needed.
