Replacing var with same lenght constants

Hi,

I am trying to replace a variable of the same lenght of a different character.
X = "ABC"
I want it to be
X = "DDD"

I do not want to count the lenght of the variable and increment "D" in a loop.
The processing will take too long. I am looking for a function to do it.

how can I do this?

Thanks.

STR is working fine... thanks

I am sure that STR wont replace characters.

"The STR function allows the duplication of a string a number of times."

I don't really understand what you want but CHANGE and EREPLACE are 2 functions used to replace chars/strings:

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


EXAMPLE
A = "AAABBBCCCDDDBBB"
PRINT EREPLACE (A,"BBB","ZZZ")
PRINT EREPLACE (A,"","ZZZ")
PRINT EREPLACE (A,"BBB","")
The output of this program is:
AAAZZZCCCDDDZZZ
ZZZAAABBBCCCDDDBBB
AAACCCDDD
