REPLACE problem
[1/5] from: ddalley::idirect::com at: 8-Aug-2000 15:44
Hello:
Trying to use REPLACE, I am getting a number of logic errors when implementing
the following, to eliminate one file name ("broker.workspace") within a
dir-list block ("files"):
Manual says: REPLACE target search replace
Mine: REPLACE files "broker.workspace" ""
The target is a block datatype, the latter two are strings - all are allowed,
according to the manual.
What's wrong? What's right?

Could it be that your block elements are of datatype file! and your search
element is a datatype string! ?

Thanks, Michael.
I had tried using the % earlier, but whatever I did failed.

That means you've tried (?):
REPLACE files %broker.workspace ""
- or -
REPLACE files to-file "broker.workspace" ""
These work for me.
