Thanks All
Good advice, but I hit a snag.
I had to change the code to this and it seems if .himher is Null then
vtext3 is null too.
SET VAR vtext = (SRPL(.vxtext,'[fname]',.vfname,1)
SET VAR vtext2 = (SRPL(.vtext,'[heshe]',.heshe,1)
SET VAR vtext3 = (SRPL(.vtext2,'[himher]',.himher,1)
SET VAR vtext4 = (SRPL(.vtext3,'[xx1]',.vxxmpt1,1)
SET VAR vtext5 = (SRPL(.vtext4,'[xx2]',.vxxmpt2,1)

That is the way I would do it.
It is far easier to read and debug.

Like Karen, I think you don't need to string them together. Won't the
following work?:
SET VAR vtext = (SRPL(.vxtext,'[fname]',.vfname,1)
SET VAR vtext = (SRPL(.vxtext,'[heshe]',.heshe,1)
SET VAR vtext = (SRPL(.vxtext,'[himher]',.himher,1)
SET VAR vtext = (SRPL(.vxtext,'[xx1]',.vxxmpt1,1)
SET VAR vtext = (SRPL(.vxtext,'[xx2]',.vxxmpt2,1)

Hi
I am building form letters and need to do about 20 SRPL's. Is there
a better way or do I string 20 SRPL's together?
The example only has 5 SRPL's
SET VAR vtext = (SRPL((SRPL((SRPL((SRPL((SRPL (.vxtext,
'[fname]',.vfname,1)), '[heshe]', .heshe,1)),'[himher]', .himher, 1)), +
'[xx1]', .vxxmpt1,1)), '[xx2]', .vxxmpt2,1))
Thanks
Marc
