Re: Scan and replace in CL variable

[Sam_L <lennon_s_j@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Seems to work:

pgm
dcl &logmsg *char 50 ('this has a quote ''<-here')
sndmsg &logmsg tousr(*requester)
rplstr (&LOGMSG) FROM('''') TO('')
sndmsg &logmsg tousr(*requester)
endpgm

when run produces this:
From  . . . :   LENNONS        03/03/22   18:35:24
this has a quote '<-here
From  . . . :   LENNONS        03/03/22   18:35:28
this has a quote <-here

You can find the code attached to this article (and probably ignore most 
of the article):

Any issues, let me know.
