Hi Users,

I am trying to replace certain characters like '&' if they appear within a string.

if {address1} contains '&'

replace with 'and'.

Can anyone help please?

Many thanks,

Elton

propercase(trim(replace({address 1},'&', 'and')) )
 
I added the propercase because my file was not formatted correctly. I hope this helps. Works wonders for me.
