Rich Edit find and replace

[juanjo]

I load and text file in Rich Edit in background then I need make some changes in the text before to show at user.

I need replace a lot of words in Rich Edit. How to make an "selective" selection of only the word that I need in one time and then replace for another words?.

I have the character ">" over 300 times. How make to replace all the ">" in one time?

Thanks

Do the following upon loading:

-Edit Box: Load (Selected File).
-Edit Box: Set text to: ReplaceChar$( "Quick Token Object", Edittext$( "Edit Box" ), ">", (Other Words Here) )
-Edit Box: Save to: Apptemppath$ + "text.txt"
-Rich Edit: Load: Apptemppath$ + "text.txt"

Here we load the text file of your choice in an invisible Edit Box Object. Then using the Quick Token Object, we replace all "<" with (Other Words Here). We then save the new content of the Edit Box Object to a temporary file, text.txt. We then load that text file in the Rich Edit Object. Done!
