Hi, can someone please show me how to most elegently do this?.....
I have a textbox, and I want to search the contents of it and replace
all instances of a certain word, and replace that word with something
else. For the purposes of this it could be replacing "green" with
"blue". Can someone please show me how to properly do this? :)
Sincerest regards, Alxasa.

Very very nice and elegant, Jeff. :) Could you show me how to tweak
your code to account for case-sensitivity for changes?
I am sorry I moved too fast... I now do understand / /gi tags around
apple. If apples was a var reference to a parent frame, like
'parent.somestr ing' instead of just putting a word in there, how would
that work? :) Thank you so much for your assistance. Have a great
day! :)
re = /(parent.somestr ing)/gi ?

Hi,
I need to replace all the double quotes (") in a textbox with single quotes ('). I used this code
text= Replace(text, """", "'"
This works fine (for normal double quotes).The problem comes in when you copy a double quote from MS Word and paste it in the text box. What happens is the double quote becomes slanted (“) so my code above can't filter it. I tried to do this
text= Replace(text, "““","'")
