Hi there,

I am trying replace a word in a string an keep the preceding (mandatory) space
or dot.
For now i am using the following code:

message = "This is some text i wish to replace. Also this should be replaced:
text. But not thistext."
find = "text"
ReReplacenocase(message, " " & find & "[ .]" , " word", "ALL");
result = "This is some wordi wish to replace. Also this should be replaced:
word But not thistext."

The  result should be:
result = "This is some word i wish to replace. Also this should be replaced:
word. But not thistext."

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yours sincerely,
Nebu :smile;
