Removing brackets from char strings
424150Jun 14 2006 — edited Jun 14 2006Ok, so its not exactly a forms question but I'm trying to do it in a forms procedure so who can help with this one:
I need to remove a series of brackets from a character string
e.g. "NIM(AV)3(LA)1" should be "NIMAV3LA1"
I don't think it should be too difficult but I've gotten myself lost in a series of SUBSTR and INSTR so thought I'd share my pain.
Many thanks..........
